I understand that it is possible to replace a Microbee 5 1/4 disk drive with a Gotek virtual floppy drive. I looked at the Gotek website but didn't really know which drive you need to get.

Are there any guides for which model to get ? My setup is a Microbee SBC 128K Series 3
Thanks

My understanding is you need to get a FlashFloppy compatible drive.

You'll either need to get it with the FlashFloppy firmware already installed or install it yourself. (I've done it a bunch of times. All you need is the special USB cable which I made myself)
These are the ones I have used in everything from Amiga to Archimedes to Atari. I just flashed the firmware across.

Microbee is listed as a compatible system.
