Dear Pete Rickard, Well, these are either one of two things: the older, 3.5", 800K floppy drive, or the newer, 3.5" 1.44MB drives. Either way, I don't think either one will work with a PC, because the drives are built differently from PC drives. (They are constant angular-velocity, instead of constant rotational velocity.) While the 1.44MB drive might be made to work with a PC, you're better off giving them to someone who has a Mac, and purchasing new PC drives for $15 or so, when you need them. Anthony J.
