Can I count on it

These things had minuscule data capacity considering their size but that was not the only problem. These floppy disks were ultra poor on reliability. As late as 2000 I was using these discs to carry data and being a designer, I was mostly carrying psd files that won't fit on one disk. To carry those files with me, I'd zip them up and then split the zip file to be carried on multiple discs. The floppies were so unreliable that I used to carry 2 copies of the files.
