• Floptical technology is a practical and affordable way to increase your storage capacity— without giving up the convenience of diskettes.
• Optical technology appears in many forms of devices, starting from CD-ROM (Compact Disk Read Only Memory) disks, to floptical disk (optical floppy disks) to very high capacity (up to 20 GB) optical disks.
• Alternatives to tape and CD-R include floptical disks, Bernoulli boxes, and other removable drives.
• Like floppy drives on steroids, flopticals use laser optics to store up to 21MB of data on one 3½-inch disk. The advantages of flopticals are a low buy-in cost ($400 and under) and the convenience of using the drive for your current library of 1.44MB and 720K disks (as well as IBM′s 2.88MB disks).
• You said you are using flopticals in your sound studio? Is that where you use it mostly?
• Flopticals, once promising, have mostly been shoved aside by improvements in capacity and price for older designs that are still around and new devices, such as the Zip and SuperDisk LS-120 drives.
