No, the floppy disk was really square and floppy. It was the original storage for the earliest PCs. Later there was a "floppy disk" that was smaller and hard. After that the round and hard CD.

What are the similarities of a floppy disk and a hard disk?
In their basic form, floppy discs are common hard disks are the same technology. They both use magnetism to store and read data. They both use a spinning platter read by a horizontally moving read head. The key differences are that hard disks have the data and reader in the same package, this is why hard discs have evolved in storage capacity while floppy disks remained the same. It was necessary for the written layer of a floppy disk to have the same data density and dimensions as they had to be compatible with floppy disk drives. However with hard discs the drives and read heads could evolve along side the data layer. Hard discs now have metal platers, and store data at a much higher density. The speed of the mechanisms are much much faster. New technologies such as perpendicular storage can be added and have no impact on compatibility.
