Diskette to CD/flashdrive PC
Jan 7, 2012 21:37:54 #
I have about a dozen diskettes that I need to copy to CDs or a flashdrive so that I can put them on my PC.
What is the best way to get this done? They are my snapshots of trips to the UK, Holland, South Africa, Egypt and Zimbabwe and I really don't want to lose them!
Thank you!

If you know someone with an older computer with a floppy drive you can simply copy to your flashdrive. Or you can buy an external drive for about $20 or so and do it yourself. check here to buy http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/search.asp?keywords=floppy+disk+drive

I bought a disk drive (external 3.5" floppy) that plugs into my computer via USB a few years ago and used that to move the photos I had saved that way to the computer then to cd from the computer.

Walmarts photo center still has floppy drives in their self-service readers, at least they do here.

Thank you folks! I check my local Walmart, Kinkos and computor shop and see which is quickest and easiest.
