Using the USB floppy diskette drive
The USB floppy diskette drive accommodates either a 1.44MB or 720KB
floppy diskette and connects to one of the computer's USB ports.
Connecting the USB floppy diskette drive
To connect the drive, plug the floppy diskette drive's USB connector into
one of the computer's free USB ports.
Figure 8-7 Connecting the USB floppy diskette drive
In use, the following should be noted regarding the operation of the USB
floppy diskette drive:
■ The drive should be placed on a flat, horizontal surface.
■ Do not set the drive on an incline greater than 20° while it is operating.
■ Do not place anything on top of the drive.
Make sure the connector is right side up and properly aligned with the
socket. Do not try to force the connection; doing so can damage the
connecting pins.
If you connect the USB floppy diskette drive after the computer has already
been turned on, it will take about ten seconds for it to be recognized by the
computer. Do not attempt to disconnect and reconnect the drive before this
period has elapsed.
