@rkindig I pretty much spend most of my nights doing some archiving. Unless the disks are copy-protected, all you need is the computer, drive, and an SIO2USB from Atarimax. Simple to use. Just create load a virtual image as D1:, set your physical drive to D2: and use MyCopyR to duplicate the floppy. I would also caution about looking for dirt/mold on disks. I actually keep the top of my 1050 off so I can clean the head regularly (q-tip & 99% alcohol), burst of canned air to dry it.
