Comment on USB Floppy Drive
cmnybo@discuss.tchncs.de 2 months ago
I occasionally find 3.5" floppy disks at the local thrift stores. There are usually new old stock disks on ebay too.
The USB floppy drives usually only support IBM formatted disks and are useless for data recovery. For any other formats, a Greaseweazle will come in very handy.

Yes, was about to post Greaseweazle. That and whatever scavenged drive sounds like the way to go in general. I don’t have one yet just because it costs the right amount to go on my gift wishlist, lol.
