Diskettes didn't work formatting nor were they acceptable for use in my computer (noisy).

None of the disks can be formatted. They are completely useless. Save your money!!!

I'm sure these are new-old-stock (my box said 2004) but all of my disks worked exactly as intended.Using them in an old Sony Mavica for strange photo nerdery, and will buy more!

Ok, I have to dispel some things the other Mac guy said below that are just wrong. In a very brief nutshell without getting too far into the weeds.....First, these floppies in this ad - unformatted or IBM formatted - WILL work with any Mac with a Superdrive. That's a floppy drive that can read dual-sided 1.44mb High Density disks (also called MF2-HD and FDHD). You can tell because they have TWO square holes in them. On System 7 or 8, if you have the PC Exchange control panel installed, they will read right away as IBM disks. If that control panel is not installed, it will prompt you to initialize (format) the disk upon insertion. Either way, you want to format these as Mac right away. If you read in the disk with PC Exchange and it shows up as an IBM disk, you can select it from the desktop and then go to "erase disk" under the special menu to do this.Second, vintage Macs (and Apple II series for that matter) also use a different type of disk drive if they are from the 80's and very early 90's (in the Mac Plus for example). They also take 3.5 inch plastic floppies that look just like this, but are entirely incompatible. These old Macs are double sided - dual density 800k disks. They only have ONE square hole in them. If you have an 800k floppy drive, you need 800k disks. These will not work.Maybe the other guy got a bad bunch. I dunno. But these are working flawlessly for me in a LCII and a Quadra 800.

They work, however if your using only a USB type floppy drive then you may encounter problems formatting or writing to them. This is not a problem with the disks but how the USB drive controller interprets unformatted media. I was able to format these and use them with a old pentium 60 machine as 1.44Mb they work correctly in a USB drive after formatting in the older machine.

My 14 year old son asked to install a new something or other on his PC that would run disks like this. Wasn't sure we could even find them. Found them here and they worked great, or at lest that's what my son said. Shipped very fast and came in perfect condition.

The floppy disks I got were grey to answer the "what color" question. I use these for my recently aquired Sony Digital Mavica MVC-FD73. The camera itself can format the disks which was good because I wasnt sure windows 10 could. Windows 10 didnt give me option to format but googling I found using command prompt did the trick. I used wikihow; Format a floppy disk.

Good old floppy diskettes are still useful for those responsible for maintenance of old boxes. Even for latest machines, a floppy diskette may still save one tons of trouble. Word of caution: do not do a quick format. Always format thoroughly before making a bootable disk or putting on DOS programs, etc.
