X58 Motherboards, Floppy Drives and IDE D
X58 Motherboards, Floppy Drives and IDE Drives It has come to our attention that many customers are adding floppy drives to their new Core i7 system. However, the age of the floppy drive is coming to an end and many X58 motherboards do not even have a connector to use a floppy. Also, if you are using the Vista OS, there is no need for a floppy drive. All drivers (RAID and anything else) can be installed direct from CD. This is a listing of all X58 motherboards and their compatibility with floppy.
