How much does a floppy diskette weigh?
A 3.5" floppy disk weighs about 20 grams
How much can you put on a floppy diskette?
yes The 3.5 discette stores 1.44 Mb.
How much MB of data can be stored in a floppy disc?
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 :)
How much storage does a diskette have?
A standard 3.5-inch floppy diskette typically has a storage capacity of 1.44 MB. Older 5.25-inch diskettes had capacities of 360 KB or 1.2 MB, depending on the format. These storage limits are quite small by today's standards, as modern storage devices can hold many gigabytes or terabytes of data.
Why are diskettes becoming obsolete?
The small capacity of floppy disks, compared to the ever-expanding size of files, makes them impractical for most uses. Plus, there are many much better alternatives available (USB drives, CD-R, etc.). Diskette drives are becoming rare on Windows computers, as well. Macintosh computers were just ahead of their time, as usual!
How much more storage space does a USB flash drive have compared to a floppy disk?
A USB flash drive is a data storage device that includes flash memory with an integrated Universal Serial Bus interface. As of September 2011, drives of up to 256 gigabytes (GB) are available, while the floppy disk is around 8MB.
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 are the differences between a floppy diskette and a high capacity disk?
Magnetic storage has come a long way since 1967 when IBM developed the 8-inch floppy disk. However, I assume you are referring to the 5 1/4 floppy that came out in 1976 and the 3 1/2 high-density disk that came out in 1987. The three major differences between these two disks are the physical size, the storage size, and the speed. The 3 1/2 disks were much quicker, smaller in size, and held more data.
How much do a floppy disk drive cost?
Floppy disks are seldom sold individually. Depending on the bulk number you purchase, the price per floppy is generally $0.75 to $1.00 USD.
How much memory space required to install windows server 2000?
At least 128MB of RAM available here,& 1.5GB of available hard disk space...........
Can you use the floppy disk for a hard disk?
Theoretically yes; in fact, some early desktop computers such as Amstrads did just that: the operating system was loaded from a floppy diskette, and data was stored on a seperate diskette. Modern operating systems are just too large for that, and the speed also makes it impractical. You can use a CD or DVD as the boot medium on a modern pc - for example, to test Linux on a Windows machine without actually installing it - but even though this is much faster than a floppy, it is still decidedly sluggish compared to a hard disk, and would be generally unacceptable for day-to-day use. A removable solid-state medium such as a USB stick or SD card is a more practical solution - indeed, the new Raspberry Pi micro-computer uses an SD card instead of a hard drive.
What is one advantage of having two floppy drives on a system?
It makes it much easier to copy a floppy disk.
