Perfect for archiving old floppies to a modern hard drive
Got this since I have a WHOLE box of floppy discs that I wanted to check to see what was on them before I trashed them (and also, see if this would actually launch a game from a floppy disc or not).Very easy to hook up, it's just a straight USB connection, so I have the floppy drive plugged into one, and the hard drive plugged into the other and been copying direct from the floppy drive to the other easily.It's doing a great job reading my boxes of discs (my first digital camera was Sony Mavica floppy disc camera, so I've got OODLES of discs from trips and concerts and astronomy stuff, that are most likely already backed up someplace, but at this point, since they're from 2004, not sure where. So great to be able to back them up to a current hard drive.)It's a bit noisy, but I'm thinking back when these were actually installed IN a computer, they weren't the quietest things either. So I'm okay with that.Have yet to actually FIND one of my game discs to try to play from it, but have been moving files from the discs to my hard drive all afternoon. Some great memories in those discs.Will update if I do find my game discs.

The description stated it works with windows 11. It doesn't. Not sure what else I could do other than plug it in. Very quick shipping and brand new condition though.

Update: by having the drive plugged in with a system reboot it was recognized and works well.

It's partly my fault for getting the cheapest floppy drive, you get what you pay for. The first dive I received worked ONCE, then nada...nothing...zip. I requested a return/replacement floppy drive which they provided very quickly... BUT the second drive did not work at all. Tried on different USB ports on CPU and also tried on my laptop. No Luck.

I had about 35 old floppy disks laying around and wanted to see what was on them before I chucked them. My new PC does not have a floppy drive. This unit plugged right in and worked ok. It read about half of my disks and did require me to replug the USB back in a few times on certain disks.

It was good purchase for the price.

I purchased this to lay to rest my collection of old floppy disks.
This, on my Windows 11 machine, is completely plug-and-play.

On 'This PC' it shows up as Floppy Disk Drive (A:)
For me the process of moving files was to create a folder for each floppy on my destination drive and drag and drop.

Process:
Insert disk (nothing apparently happens)
In 'Devices and drives' click on A:
files show up
Select and drag
Eject disk (same stuff continues to show
Insert new disk (nothing changes)
To refresh you must either:
Reopen devices and drives and click on A:
or
right click/show more options/refresh

Several comments have indicated problems understanding how FDDs operate.

NOTE: This is not advertised as a Mac compatible drive!
NOTE: This has been tested with 1.44 MB floppies formatted for DOS/Windows
NOTE: Floppies have a write protect tag which is active when it covers the hole.
NOTE: Some older floppies may be degraded and have some unreadable files - skip over them

This unit did work with windows 10 enough that i did copy a group of floppy discs i had to my home computer. I did have to plug it in and out of the usb port almost each time it read a disc which was annoying but did get through them all. I kept it as it was cheap and am sure it will do all the discs i may ever need it for moving forward.

I have a ton of data from the 90s on floppy discs, and decided I wanted to get rid of them but keep the data. Naturally, my laptop doesn't have a floppy drive, so I needed to get an external one. This is a handy unit - my OS recognized it easily, and data throughput is fine (not great, of course, but that's the fault of the technology itself, and not this product). Price is also fair.
