According to some of my friends, that supposedly had seen results of
tests, Athana disks are at least as good as Dysan. I haven't seen the
tests myself, so it is only hearsay.

I do use a fair amount of disks, and most of my 5&1/4's are Athana's.
Whereas only about 30 are Dysan's. I have had one bad side of one Dysan
and no problems at all with the many more Athana's. An interesting
sidenote is that I use both sides of my disks in my single sided Apple
drives, The one bad Dysan was a double-sided disk, and most (if not all)
of my Athana's are single sided.

Please don't respond to me, I'm only making a comment to an observation.
