      Yes I made the floppy drive work! There’s a USB adapter hidden in the back, and modular power supply makes it simple to hook up. I actually use them at my job (machine shop) though we normally just use an RS-232 cable connection to transfer files, so disks don’t get any actual use. I really wanted to ensure the 3.5 drive worked even though the CD-ROM doesn’t work, I had to put the AIO radiator up there instead.

      I haven’t seen an FDD header on a motherboard since my P6T (with an i7-920). And even then, it wasn’t worthwhile to use it.

      Do you have a usb-fdd adapter? Or just a USB internal floppy drive?
