So I fired up my original Mac for the first time in about a month, and the floppy drive seems to have been possessed by a demon in the interim.
The drive will read/boot from a disk no problem, but it makes an unholy sound whenever it reads or writes to the disk. See attached movie. It sounds louder than it does in the movie.
Is this as simple as the head needs to be lubricated or is this a sign that the drive is dying?
Thanks!
