So it replaces the floppy disk drive - doesn't look like it would fit in there; and then I suppose there's got to be a bit of software update so that the KN7000 recognises the new unit. See www.technicskn7000styles.com for interest...

It says >> " It is literally a 'plug-in and play' setup. 'EVERYTHING' you need to fit the unit is included. ". This quote is from this ebay address:

It doesn't mention anything about a software update, actually it shouldn't, once installed the KN-7000 should recognize it as it's own, but that's only my opinion, I would do some more research on that if I were you.

Why would you want to replace the Floppy Disk Drive ? Unless it has gone faulty........

As Bill says "why would you .....".
My friend replaced his floppy on his 6500 with one of these, and uses the usb drive. because it does not have the SD card facility

It fitted exactly into the floppy spot.

I can understand replacing it on the KN-6500, or KN-5000, but the KN-7000 has an SD card reader, I don't see any advantage for the KN-7000, plus, the position of the floppy drive, makes you bend down in order to see the OLED display.

Agreed Dengizich...

Roger, it doesn't matter what we say, what matters is what makes you happy. If that's what you want, go for it.

No - I don't want it - I was just interested in what it does...
