I love it. from Dell.com Best price I found on any website, Excellent value and product. Allowing me to copy and save old documents and spreadsheets on floppy disks to an external hard drive. Highly recommend this product. from Amazon.com This external floppy drive works great. When I ordered it I wasn't sure it would because it didn't say it was compatible with Vista. from Amazon.com no floppy drive in the new computer. what to do?? Get on Amazon, get the smartdisk titanium external floppy drive. SUCCESS! from Amazon.com I have a lot of pictures on floppy disk and was thrilled that I can still get them on my computer with this USB External Floppy Drive from Amazon.com The SmartDisk USB external drive performed exactly as I had hoped. All I had to do was plug in the USB cable and my computer recognized my new A-drive. from Amazon.com This USB External Floppy Drive works great right out of the box. Both of my newer PCS came without a Floppy Drive and I needed to be able to read floppies that were created from way back in the days of Windows For Workgroups, V3.1, to Windows ME. from Amazon.com This thing was great it helped me recover so much that I had stored on floppys but had no drive in which to get to the tens of thousands of items stored. It worked quick and I have all the stuff now onto an external hard drive and on HD data discs for safe keeping and back up. from Amazon.com I had purchase this product because I needed a floppy drive and their website mentions it was compatible with Vista O/S. When I recieved the floppy drive it just would not work with my Vista O/S it kept asking me to insert a disk in the drive when I already had a disk in the drive. I also notice the Smartdisk box had no printed any notice on the box itself to be use in any Vista O/S. I guess it was take your chance. from Amazon.com
