Is this a 3,5" MO or a 5,25" MO? All 3,5" MOs run fine here and for my
customers (about 20x 3,5" MO) but the 5,25" died young ("Only the good
ones die young" - hah!)
If you're using a 3,5" MO there's no 256 MB format. It was 128, 230,
512, 640 and 1300 MB.

I am completely satisfied with my MOs. Reliable, silent, cheap media. I
use Hard Disk Speed Tools from Intech which runs from System 6 to MacOS
9.x.
