Re: Atari ST
If you would like some proper (used, wiped) 720k floppies, PM me and I can send you some FOC. I used to use them in an external drive for my Amstrad PCW 8256 that could format them to either PCW or MS-DOS format for exporting files. They were working OK about 5 years ago when I wiped them by formatting to MS-DOS format. I never had much luck getting 1.44 floppies (with the hole covered) to format or write, either on the PCW or with a PC. Apparently the 1.44 disks use magnetic material of higher coercivity that the 720k ones, so attempting to format or write with a 720k drive generally won't work.
