G+_Tyson Vanover Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 So this is cute and all, but of course ir is just invoking a 5.25 floppy, not actually fitting in one. What archaic media do you think you could fit a raspi3 or something of similar power in? I'm thinking you could hide a mini Display port and a usb slot under the slide of a Zip disk, and it may even be thick enough to be an enclosure. Thoughts? http://www.yankodesign.com/2016/03/04/long-live-the-floppy/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Ben Reese Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Why not an IDE drive? The GPIO pins could be routed to the IDE port. Isn't there a 5v lead on the molex connector? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
