You must enjoy data loss, then. The heads on low density drives cannot generate a field sufficient to fully saturate domains on the media. Don't bet the farm on being able to read those disks back after a few years.
Sorry, you are confusing HD 5.25" with 3.5" HD (here we go again, <sigh>!).Are you claiming that the coercivity specs are the same between 3.5" "standard" density and HD media?
Not trying to be argumentative, but your statements don't jive with my understanding and I'd like to get clear on the subject.No, sorry, I don't keep pointers to the Usenet threads where the relevant documentation was - I decided to stay out of these arguments, but made the mistake of mentioning that "they work for me" which has made this argument rear its ugly head again - note the "sigh" above... That is regret at bringing it up...
Sorry to be a bother, then.
