I don't know your particular drives, nor do I know the Catweasel, but...

I suspect the Catweasel will only work reliably with DD drives, not with HD
drives. So, if any of your drives can work with 1.2 MB capacity on a 5,25"
disc, I suspect it will not work reliably with the Catweasel. You will most
probably need a so-called 360 KB drive (although it was able to write even
720 KB on one disc).

Just a shot in the dark,
   Spiro.
