dpends upon the context of the term classification that your using.
If your using classification in the context of security, the information is what is considered "controlled". Example, your first comment placing an unclassified diskette,zip or CD in a classified drive does not change the security status of data/information. It remains unclassified. Your next comment, placing classified information into non-secured/controlled media reading device violates DOD standards. The security status of the data itself has not changed however by being placed in a non controlled reading device has left its controlled environment which could result in said data being disseminated to unauthorized personnal. Violation of DOD Directive 5200.1 and Title 32 Part 159 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Also see contractor qualifications and ratings under DOD regulations Defense Security Services [DSS]. Specific prodecures for contractor handling of classified material fall under the ageis of DSS.

it is only considered a problem when the unclassified drive does not have the proper security clearance

The classification of the information goes with the data that is being copied.
It doesn't matter whether it is a floppy, cd, or a pen drive.
What will be more important is do you have the classification clearance to be doing the copy.
