    Floppy Disk Makes A Comeback

    Designer Thomas O'Connor has come up with a concept to join the legions of goofy USB flash drives with this charming USB Floppy Drive.They held just over 1 MB each. I bet you feel nostalgic for them, just like when you see an 8-track tape.


    They could become relevant once again. This one is a USB floppy disk that can be plugged into your USB drive and can store not just MBs but GBs worth of data. Check out that built-in stand that flips out. And it remains the size that you remember. Old tech is never dead, it just needs an upgrade.

    A modern update to an old device? I like. The only gripe I have with this is the overall bulk, since I like my USB flash drives to be small and svelte
