[comp.sys.ibm.pc] 360k diskette shelf life

uccjcm@ecsvax.UUCP (Jonathon C. McLendon IV) (08/18/87)

I need information on the shelf life for 360k diskettes (Also the 
new 740k/1.4m jobbies). My boss' boss wants to store data on them
for around 3-5 years. They will not be used during that time except
for the first write. Does anyone have any idea about the failure
rates of diskettes?  Please E-mail responses to:
                                    
                                            uccjcm@ecsvax
                                or          jcm@duke

          Thanks in advance.
