Media: Floppy Disks
Not born to be rich, by 1981 I had nonetheless begun to use a PC that required for its operation the absorption of several hundred pages of protocols and the placement of very large floppy disks in the freezer to fix frequent crashes.

i have a question for those of you who have used floppy disks on computers designed for floppy disks: ARE THEY ALWAYS THIS SLOW???????
i cannot tell if the problem lies with the adapter i'm using, with my laptop, or the floppy disks themselves. all i know is my laptop is acting like it just climbed 200 feet of rope in 20 minutes
if anyone wants context i'm trying to process and archive a bunch of hydro data from the 90s that only exists on these floppy disks
