I bought a box of 500 DSDD floppies from a guy on eBay. They appear to
be new. They seem to be pretty good quality too - the cases are a bit
naff and plasticky but they actually work.
I still don't understand how brand new 1.44M floppies fail after two or
three uses, but the 20-year-old SSDD disks for my Ensoniq Mirage are
still perfectly readable.
