So I get off the rig in a couple days and have been thinking of a project to do for my 28 Days off. My wife has been hounding me for sometime to recover quite a few pictures off some floppy's with pictures from the late 90's. Probably 200 floppy's i am guessing.
What i am looking to do is recover the pictures from the floppy's made with a Sony Mavica Camera Sony Mavica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The computer i would like to use is my 2010 Mac Mini Core2Duo 2.4ghz, 4gb ram, 500 gb HDD running Lion.
Has anyone done anything similar to this?
Will any old floppy drive i buy from Amazon work like Amazon.com: Sabrent External USB 1.44 MB 2x Floppy Disk Drive (FL-UDRV) Black: Computers & Accessories
I'm good with spending some extra scratch. it's worth saving all the memories. Will there be software that i need to help extract the photos?
Any help will be appreciated. I would like to order the Floppy drive so its at my house in Utah before i arrive.
