FDD converter to SATA or IDE/PATA
Just building a new computer using an ASUS P7P55D LGA 1156 motherboard with Intel P55 controller, Intel Core i7-860 2.8GHz processor and other stuff from Newegg. Yesterday I bought locally a Mitsumi FA-404M combo 3.5" drive with USB card reader.
The motherboard has no FDD connection which the Mitsumi combo drive requires for the 3.5" part of the drive. Is there any way to connect the FDD on the combo drive with either an IDE/PATA or SATA connection on the motherboard?  If not, guess I'll be taking the combo drive back to the local dealer for credit. Thanks for any suggestions |

Take the combo thing back
 Might look at USB floppy drives if you feel you need one. |

Traded in
Went back to the shop today. No way to use it on my new computer. Traded it in on another new DVD/CD drive. Have an external 3.5" floppy drive I'll use if it's ever needed again!
