SuperDisk LS-120

The Imation SuperDisk was released in 1997 as a high-speed, high-capacity successor to the standard 3.5” floppy disk. This format could store 120MB and later 240MB on a single floppy disk and was also backwards-compatible with standard 1.4MB 3.5” floppy disks. The SuperDisk was a storage option for two Panasonic digital cameras around 1999, but the format faced stiff competition from the Iomega Zip Disk format which had already been in market for three years. Manufacturing of SuperDisk halted in 2003 and the format quickly faded into obsolescence.
