Okay, I know I'm crazy for wanting this, but...

Wanted:
1. SATA bridgeboard for legacy 3.5" floppy drive, or 3.5" SATA 4x
floppy drive.

2. SATA bridgeboard for legacy 5.25" floppy drive, or 5.25" SATA
floppy drive.


SATA is HDDs, and ATAPI devices only.


Oh? Care to tell where it says that?

Floppys are practically obsolete anyway.

3. USB bridgeboard for legacy 5.25" floppy drive (instead of # 2).


More doable. Just get a USB bridgeboard for a 3.5" drive and adapt it
to work.


Ever wondered what that 3.5/5.25 Drive A, Drive B setting is for in your BIOS?


I know, I'm only a market of one. But, hey, they make 3.5" USB 4x
floppy drives. I can dream. Plextor announced a 12x SATA DVD+/-RW
drive. I want everything SATA.

I don't want to transfer everything to a hard drive or CD.
I don't care about speed.
I just want connectivity.
