Upgrading from floppy to cd

I've heard that the floppy drive can be exchanged by a cd drive. Is this true?

If it is possible, someone let us know. I don't see how the Triton Classic OS would recognize the CD drive.

Haven't heard of that scenario for Triton.

There was a longstanding thread about replacing the Floppy of the Trinity with a USB flash drive "floppy emulator" -- that is an older thread and the mod may not be compatible with large capacity drives; I've been unable to find USB drives lower than 4GB for some time now.

That's a pain because the Triton Extreme, which has a USB port, actually works faster (reading) with low capacity drives than the new-normal of 4GB or higher.
