Emulators is a Hardware, software or a combination of the two that enables a computer to act like another computer and run applications written for that computer. It means though it is a different device but it acts like a duplicate of earlier device. Here, we are discussing about drives and why we don't use it now and use USB emulator instead of floppy drives. Floppy disk drive was very popular earlier. It was developed and invented by IBM. A floppy drive is a piece of equipment that was designed to read and write discs that were used for removable storage. At that time it was a great invention as the company invented various formats of floppy disk. IBM professionals developed these disks for storing the data. They developed 3.5 inch, 5.5 inch drives. It became popular and was used for a long time. But after some years it became less reliable as many other storage devices became popular. So to use it in a better way different tools and techniques are used to convert Floppy Drive to USB. Today most of the system support USB format and today all laptops have around 3 USB ports but no laptop have floppy drive disk space now. USB based emulators offer good emulation for laptops and desktop PC's. USB emulators are very compact and they don't need any external power supply. One major advantage of USB emulators is they are easily installable. Neither we need any kind of power cables or any slots to attach it. You can convert all drives into USB emulator which means you can convert 3.5 to USB and 5.5 to USB. Another benefit with the USB is, it's far better than a floppy drive in terms of speed and reliability. The drives are very slow in transferring of data where USB is very fast in transferring of data. Another main reason of using USB emulators is fast availability and popularity of USB pen drives. Many industrial devices are still working with floppy drives and these industries devices neither can be removed nor can be changed. So to update these devices different countries like China, Australia, UK and South Africa have introduced floppy to usb converters or kits which help in upgrading the floppy drives to USB drives. USB emulators are very convenient to use. You can simply insert the USB emulator to a USB port and it will start reading data. Today most of the industrialists use 3.5 to USB as it includes 1.44 mega bytes of data space. Today many industries like computer industries, steel industries and digital machinery tools use this floppy to USB emulation for their old computers.
