Keywords: I was wondering if any of you have had experience with TDK 3.5" DS disks and can tell me if they are worthwhile in terms of quality. I know the best 3.5" disks around are Sonys, but it is possibly easier and cheaper for me to go TDK. I know that some brands should be avoided like the plague (no names mentioned) and I was wondering if TDK was in that category. Send responses via email. I will summarize if there is enough interest. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Mike Portuesi | | Carnegie-Mellon University Computer Science Department | | | | ARPA: mjp@spice.cs.cmu.edu | | UUCP: {harvard | seismo | ucbvax | decwrl}!spice.cs.cmu.edu!mjp | | | | "Talking about music is like dancing about architecture" | | --Laurie Anderson, "Home of the Brave" | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

I am especially interested in the "plague" ones because I use a wide variety of disks. Thanks a lot.
