Chucky -

OK, I just did the research. Check out the following URL. This is the "Data Storage" page from the Sony website.

sel.sony.com

Interestingly, the first item on their list, in the upper left-hand corner, is Zip-100MB disks. If you select "Magneto Optical" you will go to a page where you can scroll down and see information about the MiniDisc Data disks. They are listed as 140MB, but that's the raw capacity. Formatted is actually 128MB.

Sony really hasn't pushed MD Data at all. You really have to dig around their site to find information about it. From what I can see on their website, I'm not sure if they're even still selling the drives.
