Floppy Disk Drive
The Removable Floppy Disk Drive is a 3.5"
drive which can read and w rite on 1.44MB and
720KB memory capacity floppy disks. Floppy
disk format is controlled from the operating
system. (See the software documentation for more
information.) The Removable Floppy Disk
Drive can be used externally with the optional
External Floppy Disk Adapter (which must be
purchased separately). The system will treat the
drive in exactly the same way regardless of
where it is installed. (For floppy disk drive instal-
lation and removal instructions see Installation
and Removal of Devices in the Multi-function
Bay on pages 86–87 and Installing an External
Floppy Disk Drive on pages 84–85.) When the
system boots it will always look first for a floppy
disk drive in the Multi-function Bay and then
look at the external connector.
