They look brand new, even though they are probably between 30 and 40 years old!

I still have a 5.25" floppy drive in my ancient 386 machine. I haven't even powered it up in over 15 years, as it's an old 486DX with Windows 98se on it, with a 57.6K dial-up modem, SoundBlaster and very slow parallel port scanner. The last time it was turned on was to copy all the old 5.25" and 3.5" floppies in my house to a hard drive, before getting rid of the floppies. Even then, that computer was a dozen years old! I'd be amazed if the CMOS battery in it wasn't totally dead by now.

If I ever stumble across another floppy, I can probably still read it, unless it's one of the really old 8" ones. I never owned one of those!

Good times...floppy disks

Very old school I remember computers still had those when I was young

Mmm so many kilobytes

Reminded me of something. Long ago back in the 80s I would sometimes take a floppy disc (yep, just the one!) to school sometimes to use on the schools' BBC Micros (as they had floppy drives). Mine was called a "banana disc" or "banana floppy" no different from those in your picture just bright yellow....like a banana. Wish I had kept it!
