Review on Floppy Portable External 1 44MB Windows by Paul Beach

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A NOTICE. This drive does NOT work with Windows 10

This is the second external USB drive I have purchased from Revain that does NOT work with Windows 10 as advertised. The drive turns on via USB, but Windows 10 refuses to recognize it. I've tried three different Windows 10 PCs with no success. Very unpleasant. UPDATE: I changed my rating from one to three stars. I've tried leaving the drive connected to the rear USB port and turning the computer off and on again. This activated the drive and finally recognized it by Windows 10. The fact that there are NO instructions for this is unacceptable - it should be plug and play. I tried reading about 20 disks and the drive was able to successfully read the data and format about 15-16 of them. Others could be bad drives.
