KXA: It could be worse.

KXA: Imagine using the floppy disk as a punch card and just punching some holes in it.
B: It would become unreadable when the magnetic circle inside is rotated.
KXA: Maybe that's how you read it? Replace the magnetic head with an optical sensor and then detect the holes on a spinning disk?
B: But what about the holes which don't end up on the rotating part?
KXA: Use them for storing secret information because nobody will be able to read it!
B: Ok, that's a really silly idea.
What do we do with those disks now?
