Create areas on USB sticks serving as fully digital replacements for physical floppy disks serving as data carriers. The suite generates up to a hundred floppy images on a single USB stick and monitors the data recorded on each of them with an option of defragmenting or wiping it.

Swap your legacy diskette drive for the new USB floppy drive! From now on use reliable USB Sicks instead of vulnerable diskettes! Up to 100 floppies can be stored on one single USB Stick! In the wake of constantly advancing USB technology, especially USB memory components, legacy floppy disk drives are gradually being phased out.

Main Features:

- The old floppy disk drive is replaced 1:1. The connections are identical, so no further changes have to be made.
- The USB Stick at the USB Floppy Emulator replaces the old diskette entirely. USB memory components have long life spans and high capacities.
- The new USB floppy drives and USB memory components are practically immune to impacts from magnetic fields, dust or shock.
- The contents on 100 floppies can easily be placed on one single USB Stick. That saves a lot of time and costs!

I believe I have figured out how to read and write files on floppy drives 001 through 099. To read floppy drives other than floppy 000 you must use the "Batch Manage Tool" program. While your USB is plugged into your computer, use the mentioned program to browse for the floppy you want to read/write. Assuming your USB is formatted to be a floppy, there should be a list of floppy drives on the right side of the window. Select the floppy number you wish to read/write by right clicking it. This should bring up the options to "open" and "save." Click "open" to open the directory; you MUST DO THIS EVERY TIME to update the directory on your computer so that it accurately displays the files located on the floppy drive within the USB. Once you have selected "open," wait a moment for the program to create the folder or update the existing one. Now there should be a folder titled "FLOPPY(the number you selected, ex. 001);" (this is a temporary folder on your computer and not on the USB drive therefore, any edits preformed within this folder is not saved to the USB unless saved in the program). To save your files onto the USB drive simply go back to the program, "Batch Manage Tool," right click the floppy number you were editing, and select "save." Your files will now be saved to the USB drive and you are free to eject it.

Followed instructions per Garret W for Windows 10. I get "Error Code C" on proper size images written to proper size floppy formats but they work regardless!
