For some reason I'm reminded of an incident years ago when I walked into a video store. As I pulled the door open, a gust of wind blew just right and an entire wall of DVD cases went crashing to the floor. It was awesome. The next time I went there, there was string stretched across, securing all the cases.

Nothing more satisfying them watching a grown man play with his disk pick

Went to my computer science teacher's house once, he got a stack of game disks stored in stacks of cases like these. As a geeky midschooler, its a thing of magic. I do the same today with my cd, dvd, and blue ray discs stacked in a wooden cabinet made for dvds and blue rays. Something in organized media displays that made my living room pop out.

Came for the "unsolicited disk-pick" jokes, but really love that wooden cd holder - such a cool mechanism. I'm a fan of old-style solutions to modern technology needs.

They all pop out when you try to pick one... so let's add more! And now it's like whack-a-mole. I think we all sort of love these weird accessory gadgets for computers or handhelds like the GB or DS, you don't need them, they don't work very well, but it's just neat to see and have for some reason.

p o k e p o k e p o k e p o k e p o k e *click* Woohoo! Floppy drives are fun.

Amazing product

Memories of high school. I used to have a Macintosh 512kE that I used in high school (early 90's), and had 3 of these for storing my floppies. It was great since the Mac 512k didn't support a hard drive (easily) I had all of my disks handy and easy to access since I had to swap them (often!).

I had one of those! Mom found it at a goodwill. I put some of my remaining DOS boot disks in it.

I knew a few people that had these and had all their games and office software on them, this was right before cd-rom was the standard for all pc games, so you had games that came easily on multiples diskettes. We use to pull a prank called "getting picked" with the guys that had these things in their home office, when they weren't looking, we would pop out all their floppies and just make it look like it happened on it's own. One guy had 9 of these disk-picks in a 3x3 arrangement next to his IBM PC, all full too hehe

It would be cool if a storage solution had the same satisfying click when you load disks into a real drive mechanism. Another reason I love minidiscs.

I remember having a system for my cassette tapes back in the 90s. You could even stack them to build the big Tower of Tapes, I had much fun ejecting the tapes.

Back in the floppy disk days, I used a piece of shareware that would read the contents of your floppies when inserted into the computer and then print out a nice label with the entire contents of the disc in very small print on the front and the name of the disc in tiny letters on the spine. I then stored the disks in a steel filing cabinet originally made for index cards with the name of each disc showing. It was still almost impossible to find what I wanted since floppies hold so little LOL!

The fold up door on this box is a cool feature.

I had one of those. Also one for cassette tapes, which was holding cassettes from all 4 sides and could be turned.

I remember these! I had two with different company logos on them thrown in as freebies with mail order shipments.

That is an awesome CD holder.

I used to work at a Staples in NJ back then in business machines. I remember these.

YES 6 min lol ! I can watch it before my meeting starts :) thank you sir !

That is the largest bar code ever. Also. nothing beats the old flip containers.

The only kind of disk pick that wont get you arrested.

In 1989 I made something similar out of wood for 5.25" floppy disks to make it easy to change disks for multi disk games such as Pool of Radiance. I won the 8th grade invention convention for it.

Why am I getting this weird nostalgia for old fashioned desktop computer products that almost barely meet minimum expectations and leave you somewhere between disappointed and still wanting to get use out of it? Like, this video is almost the exact cycle of half the junk I used to buy for my PC because I thought it'd be convenient at the time.

I can imagine having a whole wall of Disk Picks. Yes I can.

I can imagine having a whole wall of those. As soon as someone leaves your computer lab and slams the door, all the disks will fly out!

I remember these! I had one for CD-Roms too, not like your wooden one; it was more similar to the plastic disk-pick and had transparent black front cover

I don't know why but I smiled the whole time watching this video :D

Never thought I would see you post unsolicited disk picks

I found that exact CD holder at a church rummage sale a few years ago. Thought it was so cool.

"Spring-loaded access" I can't be the only person imagining somebody getting a disk embedded in their trachea, right?
