3.5" 1.44MB Floppy Drive 10 Pack

The MthsTec MC-RQ is a 3.5-inch external floppy drive that reads and writes 1.44MB diskettes. It connects through USB 2.0 and Type-C interfaces for broad host compatibility. The pack contains ten drives, suited for archives or workgroups that still handle legacy media.

Plug-and-play with direct USB power

Each drive draws power from the host USB port, so no external adapter is required. Windows XP through 11 and macOS install the driver automatically when the unit is connected. The supplier recommends plugging directly into a motherboard port rather than a hub to avoid enumeration issues.

Buyers maintaining floppy-based archives

This suit users who need to access 1.44MB diskettes on modern desktops or laptops. It does not address buyers who require higher-capacity removable storage, faster transfer rates than USB 2.0 provides, or internal 3.5-inch bay installation.

Questions about this item
