PCMCIA 3.5" floppy drive for legacy laptops
The Toshiba PA2940U connects through a PCMCIA slot to provide a 3.5" floppy drive for notebooks that lack an internal bay. It reads and writes standard 3.5" diskettes on compatible Libretto and other PCMCIA-equipped systems. The unit is supplied new and draws power from the host computer.
Buyers who need USB or internal connectivity
This drive requires a PCMCIA interface and will not work on laptops or desktops that only offer USB, FireWire, or internal floppy headers. Users without a PCMCIA slot should consider a different external floppy solution.
