Oops I said that wrong.  It has saved 11 disks to date.  So far, I've never
gotten any bad media (I get mostly Sony).  The only disks I've managed to
permanently clobber are one I spilled Mello Yello on, and one that I
intentionally dissected so I could see the insides.

Just recently, my computer refused to boot my favorite Workbench disk, and
didn't boot my backup.  After messing around with disksalv and an hour
and a half of cursing disk errors, I finally suspected the drive.  I turned
off the computer for about 30 seconds, turned it back on and things worked
fine.  Ugh.
