Operating Your Computer 2-13
Using the Floppy Disk Drive
Depending on your model, an external floppy disk drive may be supplied
with your computer. The floppy disk drive is referred to as drive A.
A floppy disk drive allows you to install new programs into your
computer, or to store information on a removable floppy disk so that you
can transfer information from one computer to another.
The floppy disk drive is a high-density 3.5-inch one, which can read and
write to either double-density (2DD) 720-KB floppy disks or
high-density (2HD) 1.44-MB floppy disks. Notice that both types of
floppy disk have an arrow imprinted on the front upper left corner, and a
sliding write-protect tab on the bottom left corner, as illustrated above.
When opened, the write-protect tab prevents data from being written to or
erased from the floppy disk.
Connecting the Floppy Disk Drive
To connect the floppy disk drive to the computer, connect the floppy disk
drive cable into any of the USB ports of the computer. Make sure to let
the USB mark face up when connecting the cable to the computer.
