Using the diskette drive

The diskette drive uses 3.5-inch diskettes (sometimes called floppy disks).
Diskettes are useful for storing files or transferring files to another computer.

To use a diskette:

1

Insert the diskette into the diskette drive with the label facing up.

Warning

Do not expose diskettes to water or magnetic fields.
Exposure could damage the data on the diskette.

Important

If the diskette drive is not in the modular bay, you need to
swap modules. For more information about swapping
modules, see “Changing drives” on page 242.
