Well, for those rare occasions when one might need to read a floppy you could purchase an external USB floppy drive. Here's one:

It is important to note the floppy interface (cable and connector too) is different from IDE. So you are talking 3 different interfaces.

While IDE (PATA) drives are still around, they too are phasing out. You have to be careful you don't drag down or bottleneck your new hardware just so you can keep using your old "legacy" stuff. Most long time enthusiasts have closets, drawers, and shelves full of perfectly good, but obsolete device. That's just the price of advancing technologies.

If you are building a new machine, I recommend looking ahead, and not back.

See floppy to SATA adapter and IDE to SATA adaptor.

 

Just like my old, cherished, chrome Bugatti crank handle is no longer needed on my new Bugatti Veyron.
