In the earlier days of computers, 5.25-inch and 3.5-inch floppy disks were only way of transferring data since there were no CDs, DVDs, and USB devices for file transfer. It seems that floppy disks are returning as a medium for file transferring, at least as mods.

Nowadays, the once popular floppy disks have become ancient, but luckily, there's this mod is perfect for those who now and then like abit of nostalgia for the 3.5? inch floppy disks. This mod will allow you to enjoy in that retro look while using the power of USB file transfer. Although this mod sounds interesting, it doesn't look that impressive, since it seems that it is created from several floppy disks that are glued together on top of one another. This might not be the prettiest sight, but it's necessary in order to put the USB connector into the floppy case.

As for this mod, we don't think it will hit the stores anytime soon, but if you're into floppy disks and retro gadgets, you might want to check this mod out and do some DIY yourself :)
