Be careful what you order

I have two of these now. In the first case, the read/write head came loose when I inserted the disk for the first time. After that he could never read anything again. I reconnected the read/write head, but it still didn't read the disk. Revain was great and sent me another one which I received today 01/14/2021. At first the replacement didn't read in my windows so I plugged it into my MAC and still nothing. I reconnected it to my Windows 10 desktop and had a floppy to read, but every floppy I…

Pros
  • Like all before
Cons
  • Annoying

You had a job! on floppy and tape drives

Bought because it had to be best compatible with older hardware and I'm adamant about keeping the software. However, this is INCREDIBLY SLOW. For example, on modern systems it takes FIVE MINUTES (actually 300 seconds) to recognize that a disc has been inserted. It's also so slow to read that older systems that could and did boot from other USB drives won't boot from it. .So; This thing does a job, and the only half of that job it can do is so slow and so bad that it would probably be quicker to

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Slightly torn

The best device to travel back in time.

I had files on floppy disks from 1999 and they were in my vault. But recently I had some problems with my property and time passed and I couldn't remember what was going on at the time, but suddenly I remembered that I had saved all the files on my floppy disks and there is no way to recover them, because time has changed, and now no PC has a floppy drive. So I started looking at Revain and found this product cheaper than any other brand so I took a chance and bought this device from the seller

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some errors

Works flawlessly; Excellent purchase! Highly recommended!

I bought this to FINALLY get rid of all my old 3.5" floppy disks I had in the corner of my closet. I was hesitant to throw them all out because I wasn't sure what was in all of them. For a nominal price of around $11 this perfectly working floppy disk reader from Raayoo solved my problems. It was easy to plug it into my laptop's USB port and read floppy disks, allowing me to transfer any old files I had off my laptop.It worked perfectly, the only very minor issue I had was MS Explorer stopped…

  • New

A blast from the past that works with today's PCs.

Worked like a champ from an external powered USB hub. Let's face it, floppy drives haven't been included in computers for many years. USB sticks are much faster and easier to use. But if you have some old floppy disks that you were too lazy to convert to modern storage technologies, then this drive is perfect for you. I used this drive to recover a bunch of pictures I had saved on 1.44MB floppy disks in 1995 (vintage Win 95). I thought I lost all those clipart for the story. I decided to try…

Pros
  • This is awesome
Cons
  • Neutral

It really works! the best in computers and accessories

first i have to say if you have any old 3.5 floppy disks laying around somewhere, it's time to haul them out and take a trip down the back streets to go of memory. I was beyond skeptical that this gadget would open all my old 3.5 floppy disks, but it's just amazing. And I don't think there is a more convenient device. You just plug it into a USB port on your computer, pop in an old 3.5 floppy disk, and it's ready to take you anywhere you can barely remember. It's time to open Explorer and click

Pros
  • the best in its niche
Cons
  • too long to wait

Top scores in the Computers & Accessories category

Definitely easy to use, just plug in and Windows 7 or 10 will recognize the device. Insert a disc and try to work with it. I say try because I had very poor results. I was able to copy some files to my hard drive; However, I could only copy no more than half of the files from each drive. None of the discs could be copied 100%. Definitely a lot of chugging and clanking from the disk/device when trying to process them. I contacted support and they suggested that the old drives were to blame…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Electrical outlet required

Multiple units all defective

Update: The seller contacted me directly if the Revains return system is working and requested that I delete my negative feedback, otherwise they will not refund the purchase. Revain customer service had already issued me a refund before the seller confirmed they were blackmailing me into changing my rating. ----- I have to give this drive the lowest possible rating because I can't even get one that works. I received the first block and it was defective. disc not read. So I asked for a…

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Something different
