Pros: It works!
Self-powered, portable, faster than a speeding 5.25" floppy drive...
Ohhh the nostalgia, the floppy drive sounds, my old info that somehow is actually still accessible, etc.

Cons: I suppose the cable length could have an extra foot.

Other Thoughts: Bought for client using some legacy hardware, as a plan-B solution for sending files. (Toyota Embroider Machines.)

Pros: plug and play, immediately recognized. reads my old floppies, and formats them. what more do you want?

Cons: none so far

Pros: It's USB-powered, It's nice to have something like this, but I wish "internal" floppy drives were USB-powered!

Cons: If only it were an "internal" USB-powered Floppy Drive!

Other Thoughts: I would never buy a external USB-powered Floppy Drive for myself, this was purchased for my client whom I built a custom-PC for and he loves it!

Pros: portability, USB plug and play and reasonably priced.

Cons: None so far

Other Thoughts: This is great for portability. My computer at work doesn't have an internal floppy, like most new computers. At times I need to be able to temporarily put data on a floppy and be able to take to another computer to finish a project. I was borrowing someone else's external floppy but I don't like having to always ask anyone for equipment I should already have on my own.
