A Commodore 1571 Disk drive would read it.
It read over 180 file formats.
170 K per side format up to 360k per disks.
You can build a pc interface for the 1571 drive.
Hook to a PC parallel port.

Or get a Apple computer with a cross over serial cable to dump the data to
a PC.

Hi all,
I would appreciate any help in trying to resolve a
problem I am having.
I am trying to recover data from some 5.25 inch disks.
They came off an older Apple system. (Apple 2?).
I have tried using dd, Ghost, Encase, FTK, Winhex and
Norton Utilites to view/image these diskettes without
any success.
It is not clear to me if there is still valid data on
these disks. My experience has shown me that data on
a 5.25 inch can get corrupted over time. Does anyone
know if the tools above could successfully read these
disks? I am using a 1.2 Mb drive. If these tools
can't do the job, does anyone know of a definitive way
to get at this data using an x86 or Sun system?
Thanks all,
Sety
