Write Protected
Critical Point
Formatting a floppy disk that already contains data will erase all of the information on the disk.
Critical Point
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.
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 information. This preparation is called formatting or initializing a disk. You will need to format
new disks, unless they are preformatted.
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.
