What is even more anoying is that you can't use a
double-sided 8" floppy
in a single-sided drive. The index sensor is in the wrong place, you see.
And punching extra holes in a few boxes-worth of disks is not my idea of

Set the box on the window sill, line up the laser, ...
Alas not - you don't want to make extra index holes in the disk itself -
only in the jacket. For the same reason you can't make a pile of the
disks and drill/punch a hole through the lot
Slightly more complex, but possible; you just line up the index holes
and zap the jackets. (Implementation is up to the reader)
