Looking for tips from #retroComputing/ #vintageComputing/ #appleII/ #amiga etc. crew.. I have a few old 3.5"/5.25" floppies which contain some potentially-cool files from a mid-80's tech publishing/design firm I'm hoping to recover. I have a ton of old computers but want to be sure I don't mess anything up, and get the best possible chance to recover the data if possible -- does anyone have advice/links/software/hardware they can suggest to help me out here? EDIT: Thanks, got some great tips!
The 5.25" I'm especially unsure about as I only have ONE system with a working 5.25" drive that I know of (Apple IIc), and I'm not sure what format the disks are. I know nothing about ripping these. 3.5" , I have a bunch of old Macs, at least a few with known-working floppy drives. Is there a System 7 software that can rip the disks without recognizing the filesystem? >_>
