Sure, but you have to punch an offset index hole: https://imgur.com/a/6vdR6NE That's a single-sided flippy 8" diskette (it's also hard-sector but that's not really relevant). 8" diskettes have different positions for the index sensor window depending on whether it's single or double sided.In the above pictures, the rightmost hole is the original index window. If it were a factory double-sided diskette (for use in drives with two heads), that index window would be further to the right. Thanks, Jonathan
