Floppy disks - quality question

Can someone tell me what are good quality floppy disks that are reliable to use.

Apparently some people have been losing work on a batch of disks that was ordered, so anyone know?

Thanks.
 
I don't know if it's statistically significant or not but I exclusively use Imation floppy disks and I've never had one fail. I use floppies quite regularly too so they do tend to get a fair amount of use.
 
Dido,Ive always used Imation floppies, but if the data is valueable. Stay away from floppies. Ive lost projects and a nights worth of lab work because a floppy got bent in my bag. Zip disk are way tougher, but a usb key drive is SO wonderful. Plugs into everything. Everythings got usb, no compatibility issues. Unless using old windows and need drvs.

Given um to all you employee's , they will be psyched and will have NO excuses!!! anymore.
 
I have never had any type of floppy fail on me. Then again, it is pretty rare that I use them anymore aside from BIOS upgrades or registry backup. Anyway, I use Memorex floppies, and they seem to work great when I do use them.
