Is it safe to use a Bulk Tape Eraser on 8" floppies? I don't see why not,
but I figured I'd ask the pros before I did it.
I have a case load of 8" floppies that will be in the piles of stuff to
be gotten rid of at my "Open House". The problem is, almost all of them
carry accounting records on them (payroll, and stuff like that). Granted
they are years old, but some of the people on the disks still work for us
(and most of them are still alive).
Naturally I want to erase them before they leave my custody, but I don't
have the time to format each one.
And don't anyone panic... the case of disks are NOT on the list headed to
the dumpster. If they aren't sold/taken over the weekend, I plan to try
to sell them off in small bundles (and probably trade/give away the ones
that carry actual software to other people that have System 23s)
I also forgot to mention, 3/4" UMatic VCRs will be available here as
well. Many are older top loading, but a few are newer front loading Sony
units.
