Does anyone know if high density disks are inherently less reliable than
regular double density floppies?  I have heard rumors of a higher rate of
failures, and have experienced some.  Does the Apple Mac high-density floppy
drive have trouble with HD disks of particular manufacturer?  Will appreciate
any responses in laymen's terms.  Thanks.
