The Toshiba satellite T19XX laptop was produced in the early 90s of the last century, and I personally feel that it is a relatively excellent computer.
However, without exception, the floppy disk drive doesn't working nowadays. The reason is the aging and fracture of the belt.
1.disassemble

You can use the flat belt (2mm wide,11cm on fold) or square belt(1.5mm wide,11cm on fold) .
