There are several Teac floppy discussions I found while searching, and maybe I have missed a few topics, so dear mods, feel free to merge this.

There are so many different types of drives of this model, with different jumper blocks.

I have just shot myself a Teac FD-235HF 4291 -U (P/N:1930734x.xx) on ebay for €4,98 including shipment.

As you can see in the pic below, I flipped the ribbon cable (blue on left) and set one jumper to DS0 and removed the other since it`s only needed for HD disks.
Here is the link where I got my info from:
http://www.teac.co.jp/dspd/product/magn ... umper.html
I am reposting the picture of jumper description, just in case Teac decides to remove that page like they did here:

It might be a good idea to collect this info all in one Locked topic...???
:wink:

Thanks for posting virgo3, there is the MPC60 FAQ/ BIBLE sticky at the top of this forum.

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=29188

Maybe copy and paste the info there?

That's cool, I'm kinda half-heartedly looking for a floppy drive for my 60II, but I don't think i have the will...I've searched/ found drives a few times before and it aint no fun.
