3.5″ Floppy Disk USB Drive

USB Floppy Disk

Charles Mangin took an old 3.5″ floppy disk and converted it into a USB drive. Here are photos of the project.

I decided that I would put a promotional USB drive I received at a tradeshow to good use. The drive itself was stuffed into something the size of a stack of business cards, and my thought was to try and cram those same innards into a floppy disk.
