I'm sorry to read on the net that Moshe had such problems with
BASF floppies and I appreciate the posting. I've had good luck
with SONY floppies but have also had some problems locating them
in stores. In this case, I often buy the Verbatim DataLife. The
larger disk packs ( for DEC RM05 and RP06 drives ) manufactured by
this company came out on top in rather thorough tests performed here
some years ago. I'm hoping that they have maintained their high
manufacturing standards, and that this holds true for their mico-
floppies as well.
What have other peoples' experiences been with the various brands
of micro-floppies available?
