LaCie 706018 USB Ext Floppy Disk Drive Reviews
Great product. It not only works perfect, but is built to match my iMac.
It's compact, reliable and has taken care of our needs very well. The LaCie floppy drive has been used to move a lot of pictures in jpg format to our computer hard drive and it hasn't had a problem.
I used this on a Mac PowerBook G4. The unit made some whirring noises and that was it. I wish there was a no-star option. It was never recognized by my computer.
There's no reason why attaching the floppy drive to my dockingstation or laptop prior to boot-up should fail to work. Works with my Dell Latitude XP Laptop and I can read/write onto floppy disk but does not work with my Dell dockingstation nor can I boot properly with the floppy drive attached to my Laptop USB port. LaCie needs to fix this.
Nice little drive: works well, good price, easy to use, looks nice - no complaints
