The disk is Made in the USA and the inlay card is dated 1998.

This is nothing major – I do all my readouts under Linux anyway and can mount Mac images under emulated Macs (via Basilisk II or Sheepshaver) or directly in Linux. This disk comes pre-formatted for Mac and it was confirmed that the disk is still in Mac format.

By now, the 3M branding had been eliminated, leaving Imation standing on its own. This would have been a later-version of the “brown” LS-120 SuperDisk I had posted about here. At first glance, I would be inclined to agree – it came complete with its single-disk protective jewel case and a clean inlay card. I was told that the disk in question was stored well and in good condition. I was all too happy to help, as that is part of the reason why I keep my vintage equipment alive. This entailed the postage of the disk and a USB stick to me at their cost, and covering the return postage of both items back to them upon completion. Rather than trying to chase an obscure special USB-to-Parallel/IDE cable and power supply for a second-hand unit from eBay, I decided to offer my assistance in recovering the data from the disk directly. Just a few weeks ago, I was contacted by Eddie Russell asking for some assistance in obtaining SuperDisk equipment to recover some data from a disk that has been sitting in a drawer for over a decade.
