Review: Good product. I managed for format a few hundreds floppies in both 5" 1/4 and 3" 1/2 formats. It worked like a charm with my Asus P2B board. You just need to know there's a specific drive letter you need to use in the bios, depending on where you plug your floppy drive. If it doesn't work or the drive doesn't show up, try the other plug or change the floppy drive letter to the other one.
Review: Funcionó perfecto con una unidad TEAC de 5 1/4 muy vieja. Pude leer más de 300 Floppy Disc. Entró en el CPU y en la tarjeta de manera correcta. Solamente cuide que el hilo marcado en rojo vaya en la dirección correcta de la tarjeta y del disco (es el PIN 1)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by C***K on 3 March 2024*

I needed this cable to test out a TEAC 3.5" drive with a manufacturing date back in 1991. That was before drive connectors were keyed in any way; you needed to read the silkscreening on the drive, and at the motherboard or floppy card, in order to see which way to plug in the ribbon cable. My drive has no pins omitted, and no notch in a molding around the pins, in order to help the user. The first ribbon cable I tried was keyed at both ends, with pin 3 blocked - it was therefore useless to me. By comparison, this ribbon cable was exactly what I needed and works well. ** If you're not familiar, the red edge of the ribbon cable aligns with Pin 1 at both your floppy drive and at the motherboard/floppy board header.** On my motherboard, there wasn't any marking for Pin 1, but the motherboard had a silkscreened thick line going around only that corner of the header to indicate it.
