    Never thought I would see the day that I'll see computer so ancient that it still uses floppy disks, thank Celestia it's also capable of accepting USB drives

      I have a few pci usb boards on hand in case I need to add usb support to an old pc (they have driver floppies in the box for windows 98, they are so old :D)

      I installed a 5 1/4" floppy drive in my gaming pc a few years ago just for fun. It still works and I'm running Windows 10.

      I remember using 3 1/2" floppies a lot when I was in elementary school and even up to middle school before usb flash drives started coming down in price. Still have that 256mB flash drive, too.  :fluttershy:

      Just had a look though my "graveyard" - I don't have any 5¼" drives, but I do have an entire box of 5¼" media.

      Some are formatted for pc - Dos 2.1 boot disks, some classic TSR apps like Lettrix, and foreground apps like Wordstar.  Some are formatted for other systems - such as the Apple ][e or the Acorn "BBC Micro".

      Wouldn't want to put any bets on any being still readable though, after decades in a box.

      Also have a system with a 3½" drive actually installed, that isn't a PC - its a Sun Ultra-10 sparc system running solaris 9 (allegedly; won't have been booted in a decade or so :D )

      Need to check the PSU in my older tower system to see if it has a FDD power plug - as it does have a 3½" case slot, so maybe....
