Solve : Broken floppy disks?

Answer»

Is it wrong to store floppy disks on top of eachother?

I seem to have a lot floppies that either stop working, need to be formatted and have their contents REINSTALLED or simply don't function as they first did after storing them on top of eachother.If they are ALSO stored near your monitor or speakers, I'd suspect those of making the magnetic information degrade. Placing 9cm (3.5in) floppies in horizontal rows or vertical stacks is not going to HARM them on its own.They are not placed near any magnetic sources. Perhaps I have placed them next to one when working on a PC. I'll pay better attention to not doing so next time.Floppy Disk Guidelineswho the *censored* uses floppy disks...........old ...save all your data to h/drives /websites upload/or dvd/cd disks...

Bootdisks, HDD diagnostic software...An easy solution would be to go to a computer store and buy a "Flash Memory stick". They only cost about $30.00, and can hold 128-800 Megabystes of STUFF. Plus, they are harder to break.... lol

I am not looking to store data for extended periods of time. I merely need floppies as bootdisks.
