     Depends, the 5 and 10mb full-height was great for wheel chocks on your
     car.... Place one in the back of your front wheels and one in the front
     of your rear wheels.... You pretty much was safe as long as you didn't
     have an 18-wheeler ram the back of your car doing 85mph+ ....

     The 20-40mb half height drives made great paper-weights, but
     the 40mb and a few others that where 3 1/2" wide by 1" high I
     believe and was essientally an IDE drive with the main board
     swapped out for an MFM or RLL board.... About all they're good
     for is throwing at your co-workers.... And even then really only
     if you either hit them in the head or the crotch... Maybe the
     Ankle if you got it at the right angle....
