HP 250 - Mb. Disc Drive

Storage Devices and Media
5 Mb. Disc Drive
Your HP 250 may include a built-in 5 megabyte disc and drive,
located in the unit which houses the central processing unit.
The drive is an assembly which rotates the disc, and then
transfers information from the disc to memory (a read operation),
or from memory to disc (a write operation). Information can be
stored on the random-access surface of the fixed disc, allowing
you to maintain data, even when the HP 250 is turned off.
A 5 Mb. Disc drive is powered on with the same key that powers on
the HP 250. When the cursor appears on the screen, both the
HP 250 and the 5 Mb. drive are ready for use.
