- Recently, a large number of floppies have failed on my Mac's FDHD drive.
- The strange thing is that some of those bad floppies can be reformatted on
- other macs. I thought may be it was because my FDHD is out of alignment,
- but some floppies can still be formatted in the drive. It seems to reject
- some floppies that other Mac deemed to be okay. Does anyone know what is
- going on?

- Thanks
