Finally we can enjoy floppy RAIDs on Linux: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hc52_PWeU8

Pretty slow, but I wonder if you could optimise a floppy RAID setup by pairing it with an NVMe cache. Please someone try this, I find the concept absurdly funny.

People laugh at this till they learn that such things exist as hardware manifestation: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22428321

I think you can already do that - this just fixed a memory leak on init failure.

Yeah my comment was mostly tongue-in-cheek. USB floppies don't need a floppy driver anyway, and a NEC 765 controller probably supports only a few drives. It probably can't even access floppies simulatenously.
