Using the 31/2-Inch Diskette Drive

To insert a 31/2-inch diskette, slide it (label side up and metal plate
first) into the drive until the diskette snaps into place.

To remove a diskette from the drive, press the diskette eject button.
After the drive partially ejects the diskette, pull it out.

>  Caution:  A diskette drive's activity light comes on when
   when the computer is accessing that drive.  Removing the
   diskette from the drive while this light is on can
   destroy the data on the diskette.

Diskette Types

The type of diskette you use in a diskette drive depends on the drive
size and type.  Your 31/2-inch, 1.44MB drive can read from and write to
both 1.44MB diskettes and 720KB diskettes.  Refer to your MS-DOS help
or MS-DOS documentation for information about the formatting parameters
required to format a 720KB diskette for use with the 1.44MB diskette
drive.
