Here’s a picture of some media seen in the lab for data recovery service recently. Likely unfamiliar to younger people and not seen in ages by our older readers, do you know what these are?
The 5¼-inch incarnation of this portable magnetic storage medium was popular from the mid-1970s through the 1980s. These particular disks became the targets of a recent project after it was found that long lost archives of data on them now needed to be recovered and retrieved. Just another example of the huge variety of digital media we are asked to recover data from!
