Using the optional diskette drive
The diskette drive uses 3.5-inch diskettes (sometimes called floppy disks).
Diskettes are useful for storing files or transferring files to another computer.
To use a diskette:
1 Plug the diskette drive into a USB port on the tablet PC or FlexDock. For
the location of your USB ports, see “Ports side” on page 7, “Front” on
page 228, and “Back” on page 229.
2 Insert the diskette into the diskette drive with the label facing up.
Warning Do not expose diskettes to water or magnetic fields.
Exposure could damage the data on the diskette.
Important If you need to use a diskette drive, Gateway recommends
purchasing a USB diskette drive. To order a USB diskette
drive, visit the Accessory Store at
