By the way I am looking for a cheap 5.25" SCSI FDD.. they exist, but are traded for horrific prices.. ;) without ISA and FDC I do not know how to get my old drives working..
Buy an old PC?
Not necessarily that old, depending on your definition of "old". New PCs and motherboards at least as recently as 2009 were still shipping with ISA bus floppy controllers. Examples:
I tend to think "old" once they're less than SFr100 on ebay/ricardo.
I have the last, with 3.5" floppy, though a SFF model in which a standard 5.25" floppy drive could not physically fit.
We have recently begun upgrading office PCs to Lenovo S10 - they also have an FDD interface, as well as the slots for a 3.5" or 5.25" floppy drive. Mind you, the fdd interface is blocked by the graphics card :-) -- Per Jessen, Zürich (-1.5°C) http://www.cloudsuisse.com/ - your owncloud, hosted in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
