Disc drives
This chapter tells you how to use and take care of your Archimedes discs and drives.
Floppy discs and hard Information and programs are stored on discs. There are two types of disc
discs floppy discs and hard discs.
The Archimedes personal workstation uses 3.5-inch floppy discs, which are loaded
into the computer as they are needed.
A hard disc is much faster and holds a lot more information than a floppy disc, and is
built into the computer. If your Archimedes model has a hard disc, its presence is
indicated by an amber light labelled H/DISC on the front panel of the computer.
