>Are hard sectored 8" floppies of any use to anyone? I've got several boxes of
still shrink-wrapped SSSD hard sector disks. I've sold a couple boxes on epay,
but action on them was lower than I'd imagined. Some folks who resell alot of
8" floppies told me "good luck" because hard sectored just don't sell.

(don't know if they are selling at that price or not). What systems made use of
these? Any that I might own or want to own some day that it'd be worth me
holding on to these if I can't sell them for a price worth it to drive to the
post office and ship them?

Hi Damien
 How many sectors are they? I have use for 32 sectored disk.
I just don't watch eBay often enough to catch the sale of
these.
