Not recognized by drive letters in Win XP, Win 7 or Win 10.

Spent several hours getting this "DAINTY" USB floppy disk drive to work. It is recognized as a TEAC drive in Device Manager on all systems. But that's where it all ends. A drive letter is never assigned. On Windows 7, the drivers are installed but no usable disk is shown. The drive is never visible in Disk Management (diskmgmt.msc), so it has nothing to do with possibly conflicting drive letters. I've also tried several 1.44 disks - new and old. Same results. Maybe I have a dud (2 stars for this feature). I will not order this brand again.

Pros

Durable Test Results

Cons

So far so good
