Works well, on slow side but what do you expect?
Installed this on my sleeper build, runs a little on the slow side but considering I'm using a floppy drive on a computer thats nearly 20 years older than the drive itself that is to be expected. The chip itself is a little on the flimsy side, but if you aren't stupid that shouldn't be an issue considering it will live in a steel box. One thing to note is the unit doesn't quite meet the voltage requirement to power on a drive, but its close enough to where it works. Like, the floppy drive will read and write, but its slower than if it were in a machine from the floppy disk era. That being said I'm mostly using this for very basic stuff so speed isn't an issue.8.75/10, 5 stars overall.

Takes 2 power cables and not all drives work with it, pays to have several drives to choose from.
Works as described after setup and finding a drive that works with it, works for getting files that I thought were lost.

Works great!
Works as advertised. I can now hook an internal 3.5 inch floppy drive to my main computer. Mostly use it for transferring programs to and from my old Windows 3.1 486DX2 66.

Great 3.5 inch floppy drive to USB adapter
I would give this one five stars as it works very well but the contrsuction is somewhat lacking. The USB cable in particular is very thin and can easily be broken off from the board. A little strain relief and heavier gauge wiring would have giving this adapter a 5 star rating
