If you have a newer version of windows you will need to run the software in compatibility mode. If you buy the emulator that I liked to above it will come with the software that you need.I plan to try one out on a Sequential Circuits Prophet 2000 in the near future. There are intended to replace 720kb floppy drives. There is another variation out there that starts with SFRM72.It was perfect as a replacement for the floppy drive in my K2000. SFR1M44-U100K / This model only works as a replacement for 1.4 MB floppy drives.From what I can tell they are all basically manufactured by the same company. There are a ton of options coming out of China.
