Techdisk took the midi file created by Cat333Pokémon and ran it through a program that converts it to motor speed commands for the "stepper" motor on the floppy drives. The higher the note in the midi, the faster the motor is made to run. IIRC, not all drives sound the same, so some selection and classification of the drives may be required.

There is a tutorial video by Sammy1Am on how to do this, here. Sammy1Am wrote the Moppy program for the Arduino environment, which is open-source.
