Also available is a Meg a Minute backup by Dave Small and Dan Moore.
Two were printed in Start (or ST-log).  Thise sweapt a disk by sector range
to floppies. (This is why they pioneered the Twisted format for TOS disk).

80 MB in 80 minutes to 80-100 disks isn't all that bad (or good).

Cartridge Tape is the answer for 80 Meg and up.
