I also have the same NEC UF0002 (same part number and code). It reads fine 720Kb floppies, although I haven't tried to write them.
I wonder why nobody made a USB to floppy converter... all USB floppies I've found have the USB part embedded into the floppy board.
Most of the USB floppy drives you can buy on aliexpress are of the kind that have a USB to fdd interface and a 'standard' 26pad flatcable half height laptop floppy drive
The separately sold usb to 34pin convertors... I bought one and it doesn't do 720K drives. no read nor write.
Is there somewhere an easy to build, direct drive letter, USB arduino or stm or microchip or... to FDD board ?
Right to repair is fundamental. You own it, you're allowed to fix it.
