In my personal opinion, hub rings are a necessity. Unless you perfectly allign your diskettes every time you insert them, the hub area tend to wear significantly. And hub rings are real cheap, too. All good quality diskettes have them, and if yours don't you can get them for just a few cents each. As for disk drive head cleaners, almost everyone I have spoken to is very much against them. They cause abnormal wear on the heads and really aren't useful unless your heads get real dirty. And, if they are that dirty, the disk drive probably needs to get overhauled anyway. Ken Lee 5941ux!kfl
