The Superdisk LS-120 will fit into a standard floppy drive bay.  It is
capable of reading and writing to both
the standard 1.44MB FDD as well as the 120MB Disks
(However is capable of reading  the 1.44mb FDD disk at 5 times the speed of
a standard floppy drive.) So infact faster then the standard floppy drive.
The Superdisk plugs to the IDE connector (same connector as the Hard-drive
and CDROM. It almost becomes pointless having the 1.44 Standard drive in
your PC any longer
considering that it is slower in everyway.

Generally the motherboard should treat it as a normal disk drive when it
comes to booting from it, etc.

The Price of this product is $100 from Pacpacific Australia. The Disks are
$19 each and can be re-written to as many times as needed.
