It depends...when you see a hot girl... Your floppy disk might turn into a hard drive which is really big, but then it depends :)

Is floppy disc optical storage?
No. Floppy disks are magnetic media that rely on magnetic polarization to write data to the disk much like a hard drive. Unlike CD media they can be erased by a strong magnet field that effectively scrambles the data tracks.
How much data can be stored on a Terabyte of disc storage?
Less than a TeraByte Regards steve jobs CEO-Apple Inc
How can many data can be store in CD?
as much as it says on it ANOTHER OPINION : Compact Disc (CD) can hold 740 MB. Digital Video Disc (DVD) can hold 4.7 GB. Usually says on the disc itself.
A CD holds how much more than a floppy disk?
A cD holds 600 times more than a floppy disc.
How much more info can be stored on a Blu-ray disc than one standard DVD?
5 times more data. A Blu-Ray's maximum storage data is 50GB
What is the disadvantages of a floppy disc?
the disadvantage is you cannot hold as much memory on a floppy as a CD or if your into music,gaming,etc.. then you defiently wanna use CD has more space can hold bigger more graphic files then any floppy could that's my opinion on the situation but Floppys don't break easily you don't have to worry about them getting scratched
What can a floppy disc do?
how does floppy disk funtion? Storing data in range of 70 KB - 2880 KBA floppy disc contains a single disc of film. This film contains a track of bits, rather like a record, which can be flipped by magantism. When the disk is inserted into the disk drive the shutter is opened and the read heads move into place at the centre of the disk. The film disc is locked into the spindle and the film disc is spun at a constant speed. The read heads then read the desired area of the disc, and gradually move from the centre outwards, just like on a record player. The read heads are held a microscopic distance from the film and read the magnetic state of each bit as they pass the head, which is turned into data. When a floppy disk is being written to, the read heads cause the magnetic bits to "flip" as necessary.
13 What is the main reason why the old floppy discs have died out?
Because new computers have been built without the floppy disc drive and CD discs are much faster and easier.
What are the disadvantages of the floppy disc?
They're large, they only hold so much and aren't rewrite-able (you can't save multiple things on a floppy). A better alternative would be a USB drive.
How much data can a 8 inch floppy disk hold?
The highest density 8 inch floppy can hold a little over 1.2 MB. The smallest density 8 inch floppy can hold 80 KB.
Why won't a floppy disk be ideal for the latest model computer?
The floppy disk is obsolete. The CD has a much larger data capacity and is also more reliable, and the memory stick has an even larger data capacity than the CD.
How does MFM work on floppy disks?
MFM is modified frequency modulation and it works on floppy discs to encode the data. It is now becoming an obsolete system since DVDs and flash drives hold so much more data.
