Micro drive turbo backup to 3.5 crc error. [message #382657] Tue, 02 April 2019 08:32 Go to next message

A few decades ago I might not have had to ask.

Backing up the drive software as recommended by the manual goes fine until it finishes with crc error. The floppy boots even with the crc error.

So the questions.

How can I verify the 3.5 diskette itself?

Would this indicate a file issue, a diskette issue or a drive issue?

Any help in refreshing my memory appreciated..
