Floppy Disk Drive with 7–in-1 Card Reader. Weird combination of old and new. A 3.5 inch plug-in floppy disk drive unit complete with a memory card reader installed. So..ah..you can transfer all your ancient floppy borne banking details to your digital camera SD card in a snap. Or something. Um…didn’t they make floppy disks illegal a few years back? Out of sheer embarrassment? £19.99.

wen i chucked away my floppy drive 3 yrs back, i had to tape the opening it left behind, to prevent people from trying to put their floppies into my non-existent drive

was the most hilarious first month when it was open with no drive inside

though i wont use floppies, i love floppies coz i was using it a lot during my school days. cool device.

I saw a multiple card reader (24 in one I guess) an year back, which was the size of a floppy drive. Since nobody uses floppy these days, that can be better replacement for it. And it was available at the price of floppy drive.
