DEVICE: GreaseWeazle 4.1
DRIVE: TEAC FD-55GFR
SUITE: FluxEngine (decoder.retries=250, drive.revolutions=1.2)
ARCHIVER: Lee Smallbone
ARCHIVED: 2026-03-11 1000AM (GMT/UTC)
NOTES:
Disk attempted to be read on Dell 286: "General Failure Reading Drive A:"
Disk was heavily contaminated with mould.
Attempt made to read disk as-is with GreaseWeazle rig, but failed on almost all sectors.
Disk drive heads thoroughly cleaned (3x 'gw clean' cycles with a isopropyl alcohol-soaked cleaning disk)
Method:
1) Disk unsleaved.
2) Bathed in a 2 drops washing up liquid / warm water solution.
3) Disk gently cleaned with lint-free swab on both sides and dried thoroughly.
4) Magnetic media inserted into clean donor sleave for archiving.
5) Bad sector re-read: 2 sectors still cannot be read.
6) Using FluxEngine media map, spot-cleaning with isopropyl alcohol undertaken.
7) Bad sector re-read attempted, but still unreadable.
S0C0H0 and S0C0H1 OK, so .IMG saved from raw Flux
Image mounted in VirtualBox DOS 6.22, and Norton Utilities (Norton Disk Doctor) used to recover
5 lost fragments.
FILE000n._DD files then reconstructed to correct directory and filenames where able..
100% media recovery.
Disk returned to original sleave for archiving.
Some reconstruction work still required.
