I had one few years back. They can be tempremental if its not connected to your CD32 properly so check undernaeth of the CD32 to see.

I would get me a floppy drive cleaning disk and give it a go.
Also where have your floppies been stored? When did they last get used? I remember getting a box of about 50 and they were all MOULDY on the magnetic media

Ah well the disks worked on a actual amiga. I think its a dodgy drive really, it makes a strange whine not like normal at all really.

Works for me but there are AGA floppy disk games which don't work. Not quite sure why but I think the OS allocates some RAM for the CD or something which lowers the total amount to below what the game expects to find for an A1200??

Whine usually comes from crappy disks, usually those with mould on the surface. That damages your drive, you should try new, fresh disks, just to be sure.
