Touch
Label - After placing a label
on
a diskette, write
on
it with a
felt-tip pen only. (Currently, Radio Shack diskettes are labeled as
single- or double-sided.
If
a diskette
is
not labeled,
it
is
an
older,
single-sided diskette.)
Write-Protect Tab -
To
change information
on
a diskette, you
must write enable the diskette.
Do
this by covering the
write-protect notch with one of the gummed-foil tabs provided.
You
cannot change a diskette's information if the write-protect notch
is
uncovered.
Sector Hole -
It
is
off-center
on
double-sided diskettes.
Keep diskettes away from dirt, pressure, magnetic fields, and
excessive heat and sunlight.
Do
not bend them. (See Chapter
9,
"Maintenance.")
Hard Disks
Unlike floppy diskettes, hard
disks cannot be removed from
their drives. Hard disks are
sturdier, faster, and store more
bytes of information.
