Is there an adapter available that will allow me to place a 3.5 inch floppy drive, or 3.5 inch card reader into my only open 5.25 inch drive bay? If so were can one buy this??

Thanks

Yea there is. You should be able to find something in some computer stores near you. I bought one for something like US$1-3 where I live, practically throws the stuff away sometimes.

Most retail boxed Zip drives included the adapter. Lots of other systems used them for floppy and tape drives. These things are everywhere, if you have a computer shop that keeps it's used stuff, you'll find a used unit for nearly nothing.
