Using the
Diskette (Floppy) Drive
The diskette drive (also known as a floppy drive)
uses a 3.5" diskette (or floppy disk) to store files.
A diskette can hold up to 1.44 MB of data. Once
information is copied onto a diskette, it remains
until you delete or overwrite it.
■
To insert a diskette, hold it with the label facing
up and the arrow on the diskette pointing
toward the drive; then gently push the diskette
into the drive.
