     In relation to the other comments about MEI/Micro, I've been thinking
of buying around 30 3.5" 1.44M disks, to back up around 30M of graphic
data.  Once a disk is formatted without any errors, has anyone had problems
with the disks later developing problems?  Can I rely on these disks for
long-term storage?
     Should I go to a name brand disk for long-term backups?
