So when I see a floppy disk anywhere my natural instinct is "ooh, I should image that and upload it to the internet archive!"
Which is a drive (no pun intended) that has served me well: I've imaged a lot of floppy disks.
Recently it has started betraying me, however. See, I've been doing a temp job where I digitize microfiche for the internet archive.
So now most of the time when I go "hey I should image that disk and put it on the archive", it's already IN the internet archive. Physically!
