Motherboards these days don't tend to have floppy cable/bus pins. It's a bit "old hat" I suppose.

I have such a motherboard, but would like to connect an internal floppy drive to it. It's the sort of drive that's usualy sold as a 7 in 1 floppy and media card drive.

It has a USB connector, but also the old fashioned floppy bus connector and a power connector.

I would like to know if such an adapter exists that I can convert the floppy bus connector, either to a SATA port, or to an internal USB pinout?


Question: Force garbage collection/compaction with malloc()
Answer: I think there's a simple solution to your problem - you could move the outside loop outside of your application and into a shell script or another application and pass the (k) (and any other) parameters through the command line to the benchmarked app - this way you'll be sure all executions had similar starting conditions.
