   @Vyothric I had this happen to me a while ago, since they mailed it from Canada in the winter. It turns out that floppy disks do not like rough handling in cold temperatures, they get brittle. It arrived shattered

     Well, there's no flop left in this disk. I was shaking it a little (as you do casually on the way back and forth between computers) and the corner came off. Talk about brittle old plastic.
