multi colored floppies go on ebay and in bulk at your local used electronics venue but I would suggest a flash reader or zip. Once my floppy died on the SP and then I had a newer one installed that reads both type of floppy and it refused to read and load data from all of the older floppies I had been using for a couple years.


VST used to have the ultra fat pads but I don't know if anyone makes those any more. Their site should be VST.com

What were FAT pads? I feel like I missed out on something...
