I am trying to stuff as many hard drives as possible in my new HTPC. How do you guys feel about foregoing the floppy? Is it needed as a boot drive in the case of failure of the primary boot drive? Could the DVD drive be used as a boot drive instead? Can you think of any other issues that would be relevant?
BTW, I'll still have floppy drives on other machines on my LAN, FWIW.
I use the FD on my first HTPC very little. I'd rather have a 160gb hard drive.
