I must be doing something right.  

I clean my drives periodically, smoke my pipe, and try to keep the disks
STORED out of dust, etc.

NO problems.  Repeat no problems.  Maybe the key is in the storage.

Nice little covered dick trays that hold about 40 disks.  And I ALWAYS put
the disk back.  You can walk in at any time and never find more than
3 or 4 disks that I am currently using out on my work area.
