Hi all,

Floppy drives wear out and even floppies are becoming scarce. Fortunately, there's now an alternative / replacement that's available and not horribly expensive: a floppy drive emulator that emulates a standard IBM-PC or Shugart floppy drive, storing multiple disk images on an SD card, allowing read/write operation, and with verified support for Ensoniq keyboards ... and now that's available in the same physical form factor as a 3.5-inch floppy drive, making it a straight slot-in replacement for a floppy drive:
