or: buy an external HD-Floppy-drive.
BUT: at least with my C= A4000T I lack the external floppy-drive connector
on the backside of the Tower. There seems to be some soldering space reserved
for such a connector though, on the A4kT's disk module.

Do you deliver the new A4000T's with an external connector for drives such
as the DELL-slimline or the original CHINON ones?
