External floppy drive for legacy disks

The RAAYOO D005-BK2 is a 3.5 inch external floppy drive that connects via USB Type-A and USB Type-C. It reads and writes 1.44 MB diskettes on Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, XP and 2000. No driver installation or extra power supply is required. Mac computers are not supported.

1.44 MB capacity and USB 2.0 headroom

The drive handles standard 1.44 MB floppy disks for documents, photos and small archives. USB 2.0 provides enough bandwidth for the media's native transfer rate. Larger files that exceed the disk capacity must be split across multiple disks or moved to higher-capacity storage.

USB interface limits and OS visibility

The dual USB-A and USB-C connectors fit most modern and older PCs. In Windows 11 and 10 the drive may not appear in File Explorer; it is accessed through Devices and Printers under the TEACV0.0 entry. No Mac compatibility is offered.
