Identifying your floppy Drive  

 

  1. All TEAC 1" 3.5" floppy disk drives have the prefix FD235, which denotes the size of the disk: 3.5" drive.
     

  2. The next two characters in the model nomenclature denote the density support of the device:

    HG:
    Tri-mode density: 720K, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB
     

  3. The suffix denotes the series information:

    FD235HG-8304
    FD235HG-7304
    FD235HG-6304

  1. If your drive is not yet installed, you can identify it by its model label, which is located by the 34-pin connector in the back of the drive.
     

  2. OEM production models are not listed in this knowledge base; you need to contact the manufacturer of the piece of equipment where your floppy drive was originally installed in order to receive information for repair, replacement, and availability.
     

  3. If your drive is already installed in your system, then you may find the model number in your invoice. Please keep your invoice in a safe place since this is your proof of purchase and you will be required to send us a copy for repair.
