I have a motherboard which has:
- SATA
- IDE
- Internal USB headers
I need to attach a floppy disk drive, but there is no onboard floppy disk controller. I've looked for the following:
- Internal USB Floppy Drive
- Internal Floppy to USB Cable
- Internal Floppy to SATA Cable
- PCI Floppy Disk Controller
I can't find anything suitable apart from external USB floppy disk drives, but I'd really rather it be internal.
Any ideas?
What does the interface of the Floppy Disk Drive look like? Is it something like this? Old internal drives require an onboard controller so you may need to get an external one.

The external one is just a standard USB drive, so the other thing I was wondering was could I get an external one and get a usb port to pin out cable and "bodge" it – Matthew Layton – 2015-08-13T18:21:57.360
Yeah, I tried searching for a 34-pin adapter but I don't think they exist. I guess it requires the onboard controller. – MC10 – 2015-08-13T18:35:48.687
