How best to conserve floppy disks?
« on: October 12, 2009, 12:38:44 PM »
Hi,

When I opened my Amiga again the other year I had many floppy disks that for some reason or another no longer worked. I guess the main culprit was the quality of these floppy disks and how they where conserved (amassed on top of each other). However I had some original software floppy disks which I found still in their boxes and these did not work either.

I now have bought some more software on floppy disks and I would really like to make sure to conserve them how best I can. I do have backups of these disks on my laptop (mostly thanks to the CF adapter I have) - but I really would like to have them still working on disks as well!

Thanks for any suggestions.
Regards,
Sim085

Thank you Lockon_15. I'll continue to backup all the disks that still work on the CF card and then on the Laptop!
