English Amiga Board - View Single Post - Sky News: 3.5" floppies to be withdrawn from shelves

it's a good thing that the various hardware floppy drive emulator developers appear to be making significent headway with their hardware drive replacements (most using MMC or SD cards for storage). Otherwise when your A500/A1000 etc. floppy dies you'd have no chance of ever getting it running again (or having the media to actually copy to, which is what the thread is about

).
