I was using a Memorex 2S/4D 135 TPI diskette in my normal Mac drive.  The
diskette was used elsewhere before, so it wasn't fresh out of the box.

I think I read somewhere once that doing that kind of thing can lead to too
much oxide getting on the drive heads, or something like that.  Is that true? 
I only used it in my drive once or twice.  Any need to be concerned?  Anything
I can do about it, if so?

Any advice -- emailed or posted -- much appreciated.
 
Robert
