I have a friend who has a PC, which got stuck in the late 1990's. This Ethernet-less and Internet-less PC has old (circa 1997) RedHat Linux installed on it and it uses floppy disks (diskettes) for backups. Now the floppy disk drive seems to have gone out of order and my friend will need to read his diskettes in a modern PC as well as transfer to it the contents of his hard disk (presumably connected via IDE or whatever was available in the antediluvian period before the Big Dotcom Crash of 2000. 1. Are there any floppy disk drives with USB connection for reading those diskettes? 2. If one needs to temporarily connect an old hard disk (not having a modern SATA interface) to a modern PC, what solutions are there? Thanks! --- Omer Zak
