Will this read both 1.44 (2HD) and 720 (2DD) floppies?

I have only used the drive with 1.44 floppies so I can't say about the other floppies. It works really well with those. I am very pleased with this product.

They will take a 128 gig chip formatted with exfat. Higher than that, I do not know

I'm guessing if you set it up and enter 0021 for 2.1 and 0031 for 3.1 and etc., it'll work.

No. I hooked up to my Compaq running 64-bit, and the driver installed. The reader did not read any of my floppy disks.

Yes, the interface is backward compatible with the old format Sata up to 1.5, and should be no problem working at the sata 2 interface speed.

I am not certain that it would, but odd are I would say yes. Keep in mind you will need to format your USB stick specifically for use with the emulator, whatever size USB you have will need to be formatted to make your machine think it's a 1.44 mb floppy.

The one I ordered would not handle 2 16 gb chips but then it only read one chip at a time also.

yes. I've use it on both. The formatting can be an issue. FAT16 limits on how big each file can be

You can read them on a Linux box or any PC booted with rescue Linux cd. There are guides on how to do this. or buy used on ebay for $60 (that's what I did) or send your drives to someone who has similar hp unit

Yes a 2.0 card will work in a 1.0 slot. You will loose a little preformance but it will still serve its purpose

Hi Walter. This drive works on 3.5 disks. It worked very well reading my old 3.5 floppies when attached to my iMac and my PC.

I'm not sure what you mean by they must be read together. I have two drives (a 500 GB and a 1 TB) that work fine in this unit but both worked fine in the old computers they came from before I pulled them out.

No. Connecting a 2.0 to 3.0 in any direction will always result in the lower speed of the two. However, they ARE compatible with each other, but you can only get a maximum of USB 2.0 out of this particular reader.

Hi Jason, yes it works fine on a 2.0 port (of course the IO rate is lower).

I don't know. I am unsure if the adapter I had works properly. Your system sees something, but if you reformat, you will lose the info on the drive.

Yes it does. I use a Raidon Dual 2.5" drive module in the floppy bay. It is switchable RAID 1 or RAID 0 I use RAID 1 to provide a backup in case of a HD failure.

After reading description of dual-mode in, Wikipedia I would say no. These boards pre-date D++.
