Do you have data or genealogical information on old floppy disks? Have you tried to get that information off those disks into a more modern media format? As time goes on, there is an increased chance of data deterioration or equipment failure. These diskettes of my mom are at least twelve years old and probably older. Convert them while you still can. Local libraries may have readers you can use and they can be purchased relatively inexpensively online as well. Don’t wait.

We’ll have an update after my reader arrives. Hopefully these diskettes are still readable.
