    Anybody remember high density minidisks?

    Well I've got 40 I need to pull data from.

    Only problem is that I don't have the hardware to do it.

    Does anyone have an old machine lying around I could borrow / rent / buy?

    If I do get a machine how can I backup to a CD / USB / diskette so I can archive ?

    Any advice much appreciated.
