Figure 5-1 Write-protecting a 3.5-inch Diskette
• When you put a label on a 3.5-inch diskette, make sure that the label is
properly attached (flat on the surface) and within the labelling area
(area with slight surface depression) on the diskette. An improperly
attached label may cause a diskette to get stuck in the drive when you
are inserting or removing it.
