Diskette
Care
The 5-1/4" Floppy Disk Drive of the computer uses 5-1/4",
double sided, double density
(40
tracks per inch), soft sectored
floppy diskettes. These diskettes are capable of holding 360K
(368,640
bytes).
Each floppy diskette has a write-protect notch on its side, as
shown in this diagram:
If
this notch
is
covered, the computer
will
not let you write to
the diskette. This is a good
way
to make sure no one erases
diskettes that are absolutely crucial.
Always
handle your floppy diskettes carefully. A small scratch,
stain, or even a speck of dust can destroy the information
stored on the diskette. The following guidelines
will help pro-
long the useful life of your diskettes and may help prevent the
loss of important data:
•
Always
keep diskettes m their protective envelope when not
in use.
• Never touch the diskette's shiny exposed surface.
• Don't bend diskettes.
• Keep diskettes
away
from magnetic fields (transformers,
motors, magnets, TVs, radios).
