I can’t make a full back up without a floppy drive.

[DK59]

Toshiba Satellite r15-s829. WinXP Tablet PC 2005. I can get the dvd to store data since it only does like 4.5gb per part but as soon as it finishes it needs a floppy disk for info I guess? Anywhere I can get a period correct floppy disk external drive Toshiba brand? Or is it easier to get a modern one? How about actual floppy drives?

if you are using xp's internal backup then a floppy is required, do not know why, but you should use a different backup program

this SEARCH page may have more answers.

I backup my data on some flash drives just by copy/paste, incremental backup is nice, but I have never needed it.

Based on a quick Google search, it appears that the Toshiba Satellite R15-S829 has three USB 2.0 ports. A USB floppy drive should work fine, and it shouldn't cost too much to get a good one.
