Floppy Drive

To insert a diskette, hold it with your left hand, between your thumb and your other fingers, and push it toward the drive. (See Fig. 3-1.)

Slide the disk until it clicks into place. Note that new diskettes must be formatted by your operating system before you can use them for data storage. See your operating system manual for details.

To eject a diskette, first ensure that the drive activity light is off, and then press the eject button on the drive. When the diskette pops out of the drive, remove it and store it properly.
