HD diskettes among other things have different magnetic properties so although the Emax will reformat them not knowing any better the disks themselves are corrupted by the process and their magnetic surface will give out much quicker. So it's not a matter of can't, it's a matter of creating an unstable media that is guaranteed to go out quicker.
