@mia@tearoom.tearmoon.com The only ones I've ever had trouble with are those that have a scratched surface from a bad drive head or dirt on the surface.
I'm just setting up a greaseweasle rig for 3", 3½", 5¼" and 8" if the 8" drives I have work and I get round to making an adaptor.

@geoffl@mastodon.me.uk 3½" stuff always, always gave me grief… I had a pile of Verbatim DataLifePlus where 98% had bad sectors, and of those 98%, more than a quarter were Track 0 bad, disk unusable.
