thanks I've actually tried using the 5.25" floppy, but that was long long ago. my very first computer only had one of those drives. was a second hand computer at a time like 1995, i was only 5. vague memory of it. you stick it in and then you have to lock it in with some knob thing. thinking back i used to call them "hard disks" and wondered why they were so "floppy".
^i remember as a kid looking at computers and wondering what that massive hole in the computer case was for, i tried to shove all sorts of stuff in them >.< lol @ the floppy, i duno either, maybe it was because the magnetic thing inside was floppy?
