Diskette, Hard 
Drive, CD-ROM, 
CD-RW, 
DVD-ROM, and 
Zip Drives
Your computer may have 
one or more drives 
depending on the model 
you purchased:
Diskette drive
Hard drive
CD-ROM drive
CD-RW drive
DVD-ROM drive
Zip drive
Each drive has different 
size capacities for storing 
information.
The diskette drive uses a 
diskette to store files. Once 
information is copied onto
 
a diskette, it remains there 
until you delete or 
overwrite it.
The other drives are 
discussed on the following 
pages.

The Diskette Drive
The diskette drive uses a diskette to store files. After 
information is copied onto
 
a diskette, it remains there until you 
delete or overwrite it.
1. Hold a diskette with the 
label facing to the right if 
you have chosen the upright 
configuration. Hold a 
diskette upward if you have 
chosen the desktop 
configuration. Ensure the 
diskette is pointing toward 
the drive as shown in the 
illustration, then gently push 
the diskette into the drive.
2. To remove a diskette, press 
the Eject button 
on the diskette drive.
Caution:  Wait until the 
diskette-drive activity is 
complete (the activity 
light 
1
stops glowing) before 
removing a diskette. 
Removing a diskette when 
the drive is reading from or 
writing to the diskette can 
damage the diskette or the 
information stored on it.
Note: Remove the diskette from the 
drive before shutting down Microsoft 
Windows.
