Just get any 1.44 and use a tape to cover left hole :-)

Exactly as LoadWB said. HD disks have quite different coercivity from DD disks which makes writing them with a DD-profiled head generally unreliable, prone to corruption after some time.


I did not experience it. Sure, I did not write like thousands of floppiness, but it all was fine.

BTW. I have device to make a DD floppy discs into HD :). It is literally a "hole cutter"! People were doing things like this about 25 years ago.

Here it is, conversion of DD to HD floppy. How many of you knew about THIS ;).
