Can some suggest me a good multi-Floppy Drive?

I think I need one, but I want other stuff like flash reader, mem, etc etc (can't recall all the types). Not everything there is, but some would be nice additional to the floppy.

Also budget is like 1-10 if possible, or 15 top : P

Thanks

My standard unit for my builds. NOTE: do not connect the USB cable till *after* Windows is installed or the card readers will grab drive letters C and D.

I also have this unit. However I have had problems with it. It doesn't always read floppies. I have to open up my computer and either wiggle or push in - hard - the floppy cable. The rest of it works fine though and the only time I use a floppy is for a bios update anyways.
