[QUOTE="Fien, post: 10397791, member: 569506"] I used them for a long time. The first PC we had was a Pentium III with 20GB HDD around '98-'99 which didn't had a CD burner in the beginning. At some point my dad did the first reinstall and a couple of 1,44MB floppy disks was the only medium to store the data I wanted to keep before he formatted the HDD. And one floppy even became unreadable because it had writing errors leading to a blue screen which can be continued. Me and my dad at that moment didn't know what it was and just instructed me to hit the spacebar to continue... The last time I used a floppy was past year. Running a DOS-based program for programming a bus destination sign. I also have 2 or 3 PC's which still have a LS-120 drive, some used spare drives and about 30 discs still in foil. Windows 10 and modern Linux still supports internal 1,44MB and LS-120 drives. [/QUOTE]
