Have you noticed that most new computers don’t have floppy drives? I didn’t notice that until I went to put a floppy disk in my computer (after I’d had it for about a year) and couldn’t find the floppy drive ~ well, that was quite entertaining for anyone that might have been watching! Me, crawling around on the floor with a flashlight trying to find where my floppy drive was “hidden” ~ after about a half hour I had to accept the fact that my computer did not have a floppy drive! Boy, did I feel like a nitwit!
But then, I began to panic ~ “How am I going to get the data off all of these floppies I have laying around?”
Well, it was a long process of using a friends computer to transfer the data to CD’s (and I mean long and just plain annoying)!
I am here to save you the same trouble! We just got back in stock an awesome External Floppy Drive and wanted to share it with you all to save you the grief I went through!
This couldn’t be simpler! You just plug this baby into your USB port and viola! an instant floppy drive! You don’t even need drivers with Windows XP or Vista!
I mean, let’s face it. The time will come when you really need to get data off a floppy disk and have no way of doing it (trust me, I know). Grab one of these and you’ll have a floppy drive that will work on any computer with a USB port! It’s also great for notebook computers ~ lightweight and compact so it’s easy to store!
