Does anybody still use these? I just put in a new 250GB hard drive and I noticed that my cables were getitng kind of cramped. So basically I unplugged my floppy drive (it still resides in the case just not in use).

The question remains, does anyone still use these? Also does your computer even have one? I don't.

My computer didn't come with a floppy drive. Besides, flash drives are better.

My A drive is from my dad's PC, and My B Drive is my sisters PC. Also known as sharing I guess. C and D being where I put my stuff, I have my D drive the biggest all the time. And my E and F drives are my DVD and CD. I think there both capable of burning. I don't know if all CD,DVD Drives just come like that. If anyones knows PM me and tell me?

Most of the computers at my school don't have floppy or CD drives; everything is shared over the network. Students bring flash drives to school if they have anything they need to put on the system. Some of the newer computers (same model as my new desktop only with bad specs) have media card readers, but they only have CD drives if they come with computer packages.

The media card reader is a $3 upgrade on that particular model, instead of the floppy drive. :P

I still use floppy drives where I find they are required like for booting a computer from a small DOS program like I had to do today. other than that I really don't use them for data storage or anything like that although I still have some data I need to take off a couple floppies.
