This may not be the correct forum and if not, I apologize. I have an internal 5-1/4 floppy drive I'd like to temporarily connect to my computer to transfer alot of very old floppies. I have an AMD Athlon 64x2 2.11ghz which was custom built for me and one of my DVD drives is still an IDE as my motherboard is both SATA and has an IDE plug. I'd like to unplug the DVD drive and use some kind of adapter to temporarily plug in the floppy drive. It's a different kind of connector on the floppy - it isn't pins, it's like one long metal rectangle and one small one.
Any help would be appreciated. Please don't suggest that I just throw away the drive and the floppies. I'd like to try some kind of solution.
