	I doubt that your disks are the problem, but if BASFs are anything
like they used to be (5.25" days), I'd be suspicious.  When I was using my
trusty Apple II, BASF disks were effectively write only.  On the other 
hand, I've never had a Dysan fail, so I doubt it was my drives.

	Currently I'm using Brown 3" disks (DS/DD), and Sonys (SD/DD).  Both
seem to work fine.  If you get a chance, I'd try copying your data to another
brand of disks when this happens again and see if that solves anything.
