atrax27407 Posted August 12, 2022 Author Share Posted August 12, 2022 Trying to remember who broke them out from some disks that they sent. It cost them a disk drive or two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cost them a disk drive or two. These might be the source that I recovered thought I cannot tell from the generic ZIP names. If so, I thought that the disk images had been posted to WHT. I looked at my EZ135 platter images and it seems the recovery work took place in 2009 or earlier. I had to remove some disks from their sleeves and nurse them to life within the drive... see screenshot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrax27407 Posted August 12, 2022 Author Share Posted August 12, 2022 Yep - I remember. It was you. I did indeed upload them to WHTECH. I combined files to fill up a DSSD disk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhataKowinkydink Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I thought I remembered reading that the papa McGovern had said the source had "died of bit rot" - so this is quite a nice discovery indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time sure flies! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
