3.1.3.1
Diskettes
The RX23 diskette drive uses RX23K diskettes which have a capacity of
1.4Mb. See Appendix F for information on the handling and storage of
diskettes.
3.1.3.2 Inserting a Diskette
The drive can hold one diskette.
CAUTION:
Never remove or insert a diskette while the diskette drive is
performing a function. Inserting or removing a diskette while your system
is using the diskette can cause incorrect data to be written to the diskette,
and can cause damage to the diskette itself. Wait until the diskette drive
finishes doing whatever you requested it to do. When the diskette drive is in
use, the green light on the front of the diskette drive is on.
