Hitachi SA200 Manuel D’Utilisation

Slide the write-protect tab down until it clicks into 
place. The window is now open, indicating that the 
floppy disk is write protected.

Under normal conditions, a floppy disk’s rigid plastic case will 
protect it from damage. Data stored on floppy disks, however, is 
easily corrupted. Follow these protective measures to preserve the 
integrity of data stored on floppy disks.

•

Never touch the magnetic surface of the floppy disk. 
When handling floppy disks take care that you don’t 
drop them.

•

Don’t expose floppy disks to extreme temperatures.

•

Keep floppy disks away from magnetic fields 
generated by power supplies, monitors, magnets, and 
so on.

•

Don’t smoke in the same room where floppy disks 
are used or stored. Particles from cigarette smoke are 
large enough to scratch the surface of the floppy 
disk.

•

Store floppy disks in a dry, dust-free environment.

Your SA200 features a CD-ROM drive. You can use the CD-ROM 
drive to access CD-ROM programs, to read data stored on CD-
ROM discs, and to play audio CDs. To use the CD-ROM drive, 
you must install it in the peripheral bay before you turn your laptop 
on. See “Exchanging the Peripheral Bay Modules” on page 54 for 
details.
