FORMATTING A DISKETTE
Formatting prepares a new diskette so that information can be stored on it. It is
good to format all new diskettes as soon as you buy them, so that you will have
them ready when you need them. During the copy process described previously,
the formatting was done automatically.
When you format a disk, it is magnetically imprinted with 40 circular tracks,
each track having 10 sectors.
