Using the Hard Drive
Your computer includes a removable IDE (integrated drive electronics) hard drive.
The IDE hard drive can store the data and programs your computer uses. The
drive plugs into a connector on the system board.
Although the storage capacity of hard drives vary according to the model, any
hard drive holds much more than a floppy disk does. Also, the computer reads
and works with a hard drive more rapidly than with a floppy disk.
Once information is saved on a hard drive, it remains there until it is overwritten.
Hard drive heads park automatically when you turn off your computer.

The hard drive that comes with your computer has already been formatted.
Do not format the hard drive. Doing so destroys all data contained on the
drive. If you need to format a new drive, or want to erase all data on your
existing hard drive, refer to the manual for your Operating System.
