...FLOPPYDISK
A very good device to save some of your stuff. 1.44mb is not much of a very big space. It is not worth it but the price you pay is comparatively small. There are more devices like USB and Mp3 players which costs just bit more and gives more space.
To be precise in 1.44mb you can just save about ONE or two JPG image. if u need something to save your project in or which you might need for long it is not worth it. it is worth for some one who just wants to save some word documents.
The another disadvantage which is kind of a major one is that the laptops don't have a floppydrive built in. You need an external Floppydrive to make this thing work in the laptop.
Hope this is useful....

Advantages: Small and compact Disadvantages: Breakable and horrible colour
...Hiya sorry about the boredom about these floppydisks first the imation 31/2" floppu disks and now its those pesky 3M's.
Right i am sorry to say that my other batch of imation floppydisks have run out. So i phoned my supplier and i was informed by the lovely lady called charlie that they had run out. So she did suggest i try the new 3M pack of 10 floppies.
Right onto the product in hand:
These are the worst floppydisks i have ever purchased, the colour black is the worst ever but i must agree that floppies are the same as any other floppies.
These floppydisks are not pre-formatted so you would need to format them yourself which is really time consuming, especially if you have a really important report due in the next day for the bank as i did.
These floppies are not as good as the Imation series as all of these disks are completely...

Advantages: I Get Them For Free Disadvantages: Low Storage, Easily Lost
...packs as this means that you can have 14.4mb of data in your pocket. This does not sound much but when lifting text files of data off machines on a Factory floor the amount of data that can be stored on them is quite large. They also have the advantage that you can easily wipe the data once you have finished with it and use the disk again. Rewriteable CD drives are not common place on shop floors and are not likley to be.
Why do I use Maxell MF2HD's?, quite simple really the relaibility of floppydisks is quite high irrespective of who manufactures them as they are a proven technology.
At the end of the day it is down to which variety your employer stocks and most of mine have stocked these ones. You can pick up a packet for around about 2 quid, less if you buy in bulk from an office supplier.
-- End Game --
The demise of the 1.44MB...

Having bought this card to be used in Canon EOS 20D & 40D digital cameras they are extremely rapid and much better than the lower speed Sandisk Compact Flashes or other makes. The cameras have not as yet had to stop shooting to allow the card to catch up more
