Labeling and Caring for a Floppy Disk
Store floppy disks in a safe place, away from dust, moisture, magnetic fields (such as televisions, speakers, and computer monitors), and extreme temperatures. Label each floppy disk so that you can identify the information stored on it. Place the label on the front of the disk, at the top, so that the label does not stick to any exposed areas on the disk.
Protecting Information on a Floppy Disk
A 3.5-inch disk can be write-protected by sliding a built in tab over to reveal the write-protect hole.
To store information on a write-protected disk, you must slide the tab back over the write-protect hole on 3.5-inch disks. When you are finished working with a write-protected disk, it is recommended that you replace the write-protect tab. Disks that contain important information can be write-protected. This means you can read from but not write to the disk, making it impossible to write accidentally over information. Your disks can be write-protected –instructions are included in each box of disks.
If a floppy disk does not have a write-protect notch or hole it is permanently write-protected. Many software manufacturers put their products on such disks to prevent the information on the disks from being changed or deleted accidentally.

Inserting and Removing a Floppy Disk
The following illustration shows you how to insert a 5.25-inch floppy disk into a horizontal disk drive. Some floppy disk drives that use 5.25-inch floppy disks have a lever that you need to push down or to the side after inserting the floppy disk. When you are finished working with the disk, lift up the drive lever and take out the disk.
To insert a 3.5-inch floppy disk, slide it into the disk drive until you hear a click. When you are finished using the disk, press the button on the front of the drive. The disk pops out so that you can remove it easily.
Inserting a 5.25-inch disk into a drive
Preparing Disk to Hold Information
Blank disks can be used to store your own information and programs, but these disks must be formatted before they can be used.
If you have a new disk that has never been used, you must prepare it for storing information. You do this by running a program that formats the disk so that MS-DOS can find information on it. When you format a disk, MS-DOS also checks the disk for defects.
Be very careful when formatting disks. Formatting a disk deletes any information that was stored on the disk, and this information may not be recoverable.
Translate the following words into English (learn 3 forms of irregular verbs):
показывать форматировать
вставлять диск проверять
дисковод хранение информации
рычажок вытаскивать
повернуть вниз или в сторону дефект
толкать удалять информацию
щелчок быть осторожным
невосстановимый легко
