Floppy Disk Drive

Your blade assembly unit is provided with the 3.5-inch floppy disk drive on its front to write/read
data to/from a floppy disk.
Your blade assembly unit supports the following 3.5-inch floppy disks:
2HD floppy disk (FAT 1.44MB)
2DD floppy disk (720KB)
NOTE:
Setting and Removing Floppy
Disks
Make sure that the blade assembly unit is powered on(the POWER lamp is lit) before inserting a
floppy disk into the floppy disk drive.
When you completely insert the floppy disk into the floppy disk drive, the drive clicks and the eject
button on the floppy disk is slightly pushed out.
To eject the floppy disk from the floppy disk drive, press the eject button.
NOTES:
When an unformatted floppy disk is inserted, a message notifying
that date read is not available and a message prompting formatting
are displayed. Refer to the manual that comes with the OS for more
information on howto format the floppy disk.
If you power on or restart the system with a floppy disk inserted into
the drive, the system will start from the floppy disk.
Make sure that the floppy disk access lamp is unlit before ejecting
the floppy disk. Ejecting the disk when the access lamp is lit may
destroy the disk data.
Windows XP does not support 720KB formatting.
