Boy, we absolutely could not imagine a future without diskette drives. ๐
why would you o:)
Floppies were the most ubiquitous storage device for a while so it's no surprise. Nowadays it could be a few USB type A ports. We're slowly switching to USB type C but type A has now been standard for around two decades.
Cloud storage and using web based software has pretty much made any kind of physical storage redundant for most people.
Until "their" stuff disappears. I follow 123 backup rule so I have stuff online but there is nothing like having your own collection. Thanks but I'll stick to physical media if possible.
