    I remeber times where a 51/4 cardboard floppy was enough for all my documents and apps.

      51/4 cardboard floppy

      Wait, I’m also old enough to remember 5.25" floppies, but I always thought the casings were some sort of flexible plastic. Were some of them just card stock, or were they all some sort of treated paper product?

        I know these as cardboard case, but certainly with some treatment to make it more resistant.
