I also had problems with my i-drive.  I am able to read/write
the 720K floppies only if they were created on the Rainbow.
I was never able to share the disks between the Rainbow and
the IBM PC ('data error reading ...'). Since data sharing was one
of the I-drive's selling points, I must have received a defective unit.
Since it worked fine as a higher capacity floppy drive on the
Rainbow, I never did get around to replacing it.
 
Anyway, get a copy of Computer Shopper and order a replacement
Teac FD-235F.  I saw them advertised for as little as 59 dollars
a few months ago.
