Figure 4-1 Loading/Ejecting a 3.5” Floppy Disk
External Floppy Disk Drive
Your LifeBook notebook may have an optional external
floppy disk drive which can read and write information
on removable 1.44MB and 720KB floppy disks
.
LOADING A DISK
To load a disk into your disk drive, follow these easy
steps:
1. Orient the disk so that its label is facing upwards
and the shutter side is pointing towards the drive.
(Figure 4-1)
2. Push the disk into the drive until the Eject button
pops out and you hear a click.
EJECTING A DISK
To eject a disk from the disk drive, follow these easy
steps:
1. Check that the Floppy Disk Drive Access indicator
is inactive.
2. Press the Eject button. This will push your disk
partially out of the drive.
3. Remove the disk.
PREPARING A DISK FOR USE
Before you can use a new disk, it needs to be prepared
so your LifeBook notebook knows where to store infor-
mation. This preparation is called formatting or initial-
izing a disk. You will need to format new disks, unless
they are preformatted. (Please refer to your operating
system manual for step-by-step instructions on formatting a
disk)
To prevent accidental erasure of the data stored on a
disk, slide the “write protect” tab until a small hole is
exposed. This sets the disk into a protected state where
nothing can be added or removed. If you want to add or
remove data on a protected disk, slide the “write
protect” tab to close the small hole. (Figure 4-2)

P O I N T
Your LifeBook notebook is preconfigured to boot from a
floppy drive. Reference the BIOS manual for further
information on changing the default boot drive.
P O I N T
When there is no disk in the drive, the Eject button is
flush with your notebook.
C A U T I O N
If you eject the disk while the Floppy Disk Drive Access
indicator is active, there is a risk of damaging the data
on the disk, the disk itself or even the disk drive.
C A U T I O N
Formatting a floppy disk that already contains data will
erase all of the information on the disk.
