bamf226 #1 Posted June 11, 2014 Anyone have use for 5.25" floppies. Have a nice stack of them that I don't know what to do with. Can they be recycled? Can someone use them for target practice? Hate to clutter up a landfill with them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RickR #4 Posted June 11, 2014 Put them in the "Free" thread. The person who wants them will pay for shipping. You get them out of your house. Win-win. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bamf226 #5 Posted June 11, 2014 They are all used as far as I know. SOme of them have games on them, some of them have computer programs I wrote in the late 90s in college. I don't know if they are hd or dd. How do you tell? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bamf226 #9 Posted June 11, 2014 Thanks Kida. Didn't recognize it with the weird title. Is it ok to post in that thread if it isn't a game? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bamf226 #10 Posted June 11, 2014 it might be on the label Most of the disks either have no label, or a homemade label. A few say DSDD or MD-2D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kida0723 #11 Posted June 11, 2014 Thanks Kida. Didn't recognize it with the weird title. Is it ok to post in that thread if it isn't a game? Yeah. People give away all kinds of things on that thread. Someone will take your floppies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
