What if we had a device, like the Forestry backpacks, that could hold, say, 25 floppy disks?

That would be a great addition, and it would be cool if it looked like a real floppy disk holder:

This would be a really nice addition. I'm always trying to find something to decoratively and nicely hold and display my floppy disks.

Bear in mind that forestry's backpacks aren't "display cases". They're simply inventory-expanders, allowing you to carry more stuff than usual, and don't really have any "cosmetic" features. They each typically only hold items of a certain type.
I'm not sure I can see the point, given that there are items such as Tinker's Construct's knapsack, Extra Util's golden bag of holding, not to mention enderchests (Ender Storage or vanilla)…

Does anyone put something serious here?

And also bibliocraft which has its display cases. I think in the end a floppy disk holder is just too specialist to be useful, though I seem to remember there was a mod 'back in the day' that added a 'Programmer's backpack' or something?

That's a variation of one of the forestry backpacks, the backpacks have a sort of API to create new ones however I forget which ComputerCraft add on used it to add the backpack.And also bibliocraft which has its display cases.

bibliocraft (already mentioned) adds a disk rack which can hold CC floppy disks, this doesn't allow you to carry around more disks in less space though
