Featured Project : USB Floppy Drive
Bringing the 80's back for a reason is Coroflot member Thomas O'Connor: "The design is simple. My intention was to recycle/reuse old, outdated and obsolete 1.44mb floppy discs and reuse the housings to create modern, USB hard drives."

Where would one purchase one of these delightfully retro items?
Thanks,
I need something that I can plug into the floppy drive of an old device, that I can then plug a portable flash drive into. Do you have something like that? What is pictured seems to go from a floppy drive to a usb input.
I need something that will make this old floppy drive have more memory.
Thank you,
James Hazlewood
is buying one of these an option or are they just some wicked cool 'look but don't touch' kind of deal?
And how does he want to realize that bottom flap on "recycled" floppies?
