Hi I've got 2 5 and 1/2 drives. I think they only read up to 1.2mbs though?
LMK if interested

to the best of my knowledge... there aren't any such things such as 5.5" drives...
only 1.44mb 3.5" and 1.2mb 5.25"

I've got a box full of 'em too. If you want to pay the shipping costs they are yours. I think most of them work, but I don't even have a 5 1/4" disk to test with. :)

They're also great for target practice.
