I was partial to Verbatim because those seemed to be pretty consistently good from the early 80's through the mid 90's.
Zip drives sold like absolute mad mid/late 1995.*
* In 95, I placed around the top for the high school virtual portfolio investing contest ROI with 90% in IOMG +150% (2.5x) in 2 weeks. I also happened to be selling Zip drives at my night/weekend job as fast as they came in. My high school econ teacher mentioned his investing club invested and sold it before sales took off stonks-style and so they lost money on it. These floptical/-alikes went poof as soon as CD+/-R(W) drives and discs came down in price.
