I'm not sure if the disk was further damaged by this method, or if it was already like this when I began the process. Kenmerken: - Externe Diskettedrive met USB interface voor de standaard 3.5 inch floppy drives.

After further inspection the mold is still there, so the disk is now unreadable and the mold is still there. This sort of worked, but the disk continued to be unreadable, and there was a scraping mark afterwards, so clearly the drive didn't like to encounter a thin layer of alcohol on the disk's surface. Since I was impatient and was tired of manually spinning the disk I tried putting it inside the drive so it would spin faster. Here the disk doesn't adhere to the cloth anymore, but apparently it also takes a lot of time for the alcohol to dry. Method 2: Similar to method 1, but with one or two drops of isopropyl alcohol. Basically this method only works if you get the disk out of the plastic casing. However I tried to force it a little bit and that only caused the cloth to come lose in some points. Initially the disk seemed to be getting cleaner, but then the cloth inside it started to absorb all the water which created a lot of friction resulting in the inability to spin the disk. Method 1: Put them under the water tap and spin the disk manually to spread the water inside. Well, in the name of science I decided to try a few things, and none of them worked so far (and resulted in destroyed disks): You can enter commands such as DIR to make the cleaning disk rotate (Note at the DOS command prompt), and repeat the operation several times after an error message appears. Recovering the data would also be a good thing to have of course. Read and write operations must be performed on the 3.5-inch cleaning disk in order to make the cleaning disk rotate. The problem here is that I wanted to recover the original so I can continue using it. I am confidant you could do the same with a 3.5 floppy if you are careful and don't mind losing the original.
