Have you tried DSDD ("360K") media? Unlike
its 3.5" siblings, there is
quite a bit of difference magnetically speaking between the DD and HD
media. That is, you can't reliably (if at all) format one as the other.
Years ago, I encountered an amusing oddity, . . .
trying to use "HD" media as "DD" (due to a purchasing agent sleeping
with
a supplier, and giving us Roytype [presumably HD] media, instead of the
Verbatin Datalife DD that we ordered), would sometimes seem to work, but
within minutes/hours/days, the recorded content (including formatting, of
course) was GONE.
