Imation 3.5 - Inch 1.44MB Preformatted IBM 100-Pack

This item is no longer available in stores, and I considered myself fortunate to find it on Amazon. As I still own a computer with a floppy disk drive, I use these diskettes for personal purposes such as job resumes, etc. Imation makes great-quality products. For anyone not yet ready to upgrade their computer or to learn how to use a flash drive, these are perfect for external storage in case the computer hard drive gets damaged or wiped clean from a virus. I would recommend these to everyone!

In my work I have to copy & restore databases to old scales frequently. I understand that magnetic floppy discs are prone to failure, especially as they age. I can usually use and reuse a disc many times before I have a failure. I purchased these discs because they were "New" and not "remanufactured". I have experienced failures after copying the database to a disc sucessfully and restoring it once without issue, but the second copy/restore fails: the disc appears to copy without an error but fails to restore. I can not be certain that the issue is not with my old disc drives (I have two) but the problem seems to occur with greater frequency than ever before with this last batch of discs. I now have to use a disc only once to be certain that I dont loose data & waste time.

I bought these to be used in legecy Dos industrial computers until I could figure out how to retro fit the older systems with new Compact Flash Card uinits. They do the job, like always...

THEY WERE NOT ALL CLEAN. THEY WERE REFURB DISKS THAT HADNT HAD THE ORIGINAL DATA CLEANED OFF AS ADVERTISED POOR.

I use this product in my business, and it's kind of sad it's getting harder to find this product for older computer equipment. I guess they are still manufactured because most of the world (save the U.S., I guess) uses older computer equipment.

The disks work great! I'm thoroughly satisfied. When I call with questions, I always get a quick helpful response! Thank you so much!

Hard to find floppy disks these days and this was just what I was looking for at a great price. Wish I bought more.

I have had a few disks which didn't work for some reason. This is extremely problematic as I am required by law to store my work and be able to reproduce it in the future. I e-mailed the company and they never even responded. Am thankful that Amazon carries these disks as they are hard to find, but was disappointed in the lack of response from the vendor.
