For the sack of the rest who didnt read the FAQ, here's what it says about HD vs DD: -- The 3.5" HD's may work fine on your 800k drives; or, they may just seem to work fine. Either way, there's no question: a drive optimized for DD will not be optimized for HD. If you'd rather not 'roll the dice' on your software collection, stick with Double Density diskettes. -- Can't find DD nowadays (in fact, not even 3.5" disk nowadays), HD is probably the only way to go.
I've used HD disks for years, never noticed the difference and haven't had any data failures that I can recall.
For disk copying, Photonix from FTA is good.
