External Floppy Disk Drive

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has a external floppy disk drive which can read and write information on removable 1.44MB and 720KB floppy disks.

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 notebook.

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.

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 notebook knows where to store information. This preparation is called formatting or initializing a disk. You will need to format new disks, unless they are preformatted. (Please refer to your operating system manual for step-by-step instructions on formatting a disk)

To prevent accidental erasure of the data stored on a disk, slide the “write protect” tab until a small hole is exposed. This sets the disk into a protected state where nothing can be added or removed. If you want to add or remove data on a protected disk, slide the “write protect” tab to close the small hole. (Figure 4-3)

Formatting a floppy disk that already contains data will erase all of the information on the disk.
