Testing a Commodore 1541 II Floppy Drive

In this episode, the Triple Freedom team tests a Commodore 1541-II floppy disk drive unit, which is in excellent physical condition with pristine plastics. Using a real machine and a demo disc, likely sourced from Germany, the team evaluates the unit’s performance. The directory is first loaded, and functionality is verified by running the game “Battle Chess,” selected for its strong copy protection and ability to create backup copies. The full video reveals the results of the test.
