SuperDisk
Floppy Disk Drive
Your Fujitsu LifeBook has either a SuperDisk drive, which
can use either standard floppy disks or Super floppy disks
(with a capacity of 120MB), or a 3.5" floppy disk drive
with the ability to read and write information on remov-
able 1.44MB and 720KB floppy disks.
W A R N I N G
Your SuperDisk 120 drive does not support warm-, or
hot-swapping. You must cold-swap in order to use your
SuperDisk 120 drive.

LOADING A DISK

To load a disk into your disk drive, follow these easy steps:
1. Orient the disk so that its label is facing upwards
and the shutter side is pointing towards the drive.
(Figure 4-2)
2. Push the disk into the drive until the Eject button
pops out and you hear a click.
P O I N T
When there is no disk in the drive, the Eject button is
flush with your LifeBook.

EJECTING A DISK

To eject a disk from the disk drive, follow these easy steps:
1. Check that the Floppy Disk Drive Access indicator
is inactive.
2. Press the Eject button. This will push your disk
partially out of the drive.
3. Remove the disk.
SOFTWARE EJECT FOR LS-120 DISK (ONLY
IN MODELS WITH WINDOWS 98 SECOND
EDITION)
1. Put the cursor on the LS-120 drive in My Computer.
2. Right mouse click.
3. Select Eject.
C A U T I O N
If you eject the disk while the Floppy Disk Drive Access
indicator is active, there is a risk of damaging the data
on the disk, the disk itself or even the disk drive.

PREPARING A DISK FOR USE

Before you can use a new disk, it needs to be prepared
so your LifeBook knows where to store information. This
preparation is called formatting or initializing a disk. You
will need to format new disks, unless they are prefor-
matted. (Please refer to your operating system manual for
step-by-step instructions on formatting a disk)
