Seriously though you’ve sent me down a rabbit hole that doesn’t have a satisfactory ending (yet). Some kind of LPC to FDC adapter seems to be potentially possible on some motherboards, but haven’t found any concrete evidence of someone having done that yet.
Most practical solution is to use an external USB drive, strip the casing, print a plate and wire the cable to the onboard USB header on the mobo.
Even 11 years old, unless its an industrial computer… how does it have FDD connector?
Just plug in an ISA card, duh.

This may get further research 😂
You know, I actually don’t know, it was a gift from my father who paid for it to get built, I’ve never actually checked the connection…
