There are some of us out here that have been working with computers since the late 80's,diskettes were the usual storage devices, so we have a ton of old archived floppies that storage important files, for example, Wedding photos, kids' photos, papers, research data, previously collected poems and recipes, etc. However, Currect computers no longer come with 3.5 inch floppy disk drives, This unit is a perfect solution to help you quickly and easily see and copy the files in your floppy disks.

    Feature:

    1.Perfect companion for our laptops or desktops without internal floppy disk drive.

    2.External USB Type-A floppy disk reader, suitable for most of new and older computers;

    2.Plug and play, no need any additional software and extra power supply.

    3.High Speed USB 2.0 floppy disc reader.

    5.Wide Compatibility: Compatible with Windows 11/ 10/ 8.1/ 7/ Vista/ XP/ 2000 OS, not compatible with MAC operating system.

    TIPS:

    ?Not all of your disks can be read, which is due to their age, not the drive. Floppy disks were produced in the 1980s and 1990s and have a history of 30 to 40 years. Due to long storage times, some floppy disks may be corrupted, mouldy or dusty, so some of your floppy disks may not be successfully opened by our floppy disk drive, or the drive may initially be able to open some floppy disks but stop working due to dust on the disks. Therefore, please carefully check the status of the floppy disk before reading to avoid the drive stopping working due to floppy disk issues.

    ?Floppy disk is characterized by small capacity and slow reading speed, please give it some time to load the data. It's normal that you hear the nostalgic soft little whirring sound as it loaded your old files. Please always wait for the disks to stop whirring before trying to do anything else.

    ?Windows 11/10 system has a lot of show/hide options for File Explore,so you maybe cannot see the drive icon named "Floppy disk drive (A:)" after bring up "Windows File Explorer", please bring up “Devices and Printers” and right-Click on the drive icon named “TEACV0.0” under the “Devices”, Hover cursor over “Browse files” and then click on “Floppy disk drive(A:)”, then you will see the content of your disks.

    ?When you insert second diskette, it still shows the files from the 1st disksettefor, for this issue, please make sure you use the refresh button. After insert second floppy disk inside the drive, please right click the Windows Explorer and click "refresh" in order to update the contents of the device and read the data off the newly inserted floppy disk.
