Sell them. There is a market for that.

Epoxy them into coasters and sell them as save icon coasters.

Print your business cards on them.

Write “If found, please return to Minot AFB, ND c/o Duane” on them & scatter them in various airport restrooms across the US.

Tape the other hole and format them in DD (0,72MB) format.

Probably not the same terms as when they made the disks, but it's their terms on limited warranty now.

Also, hand the disks to anyone asking you for your email for marketing purposes. Tell them all your information is on the disk.

Abort, Retry, or Fail. But all at the same time.

Toast them and have them with PB&J, obviously

link them together through the data and read-only slots to make a countdown chain.

I wonder what “limited lifetime warranty” means.

It probably means you can complain any time about a manufacturing defect, but not anything else.

Anyway, the terms should be printed somewhere on the box or in a paper inside.

You’ll want to download and install the most up-to-date drivers. I believe this model benefits from a slight overclock too, so maybe look at purchasing a decent aftermarket cooler
