I seem to remember a swinging arm that I would click in place after inserting a 5 and a quarter floppy. I do think the 3 and a half floppies ticked a little when you pushed them into the drive, but not nearly so much as clicking the arm in place for the larger ones.

It depended on the model i think. I remember having exactly 1 3.5 drive with the clicky arm, but all the others did the tape deck thing.
It would pop the ejection button into place when you put it in the drive ☺️ I mss that click. You just knew it was working.
Man, I really miss the tactility of older computer hardware!
