When I was building my HTPC, I knew I needed a floppy drive for the SATA drivers during XP install. I thought to myself, hm, seeing as how I only have 1 3.5" external bay, and it would be kind of nice to be able to load my pictures, mp3 files, etc onto my HTPC, I'll get a combo drive! Found one at Monarch for $15 shipped It seems it has since gone up to $20, but I know Monarch's prices fluctuate based on stock, so maybe it will go back down with time. For a few bucks more than a normal floppy, you can get one that reads flash cards as well.
