Most floppy disks will come pre-formatted. All floppy disks need to be formatted to be usable.
No. Floppy drisks do not need any formatting at all. Just pop it into the floppy drive and that's all you need to do.
A floppy drive in your computer and an operating system capable of reading it.
No.
No Macintosh has included a floppy drive since the release of the iMac G3 in 1998. If you need to use a floppy disk, you will have to purchase an external USB drive.

You would need 729 floppy disks to hold 1GB of data. This is because:1 gigabyte is equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes1 floppy disk can hold 1,474,560 bytesSo floppy disks per gigabyte is equal to 1,073,741,824 divided by 1,474,560, which is 728.18 disks. This means you would need 729 disks to hold the full 1GB.
To read a floppy disk, you insert a floppy disk into a floppy disk drive. Not all computers have floppy disk drives. Typically desktop computers or ones that stand on the floor have floppy disk drives. New machines today allow a USB thumb drive (USB flash memory storage device) to be used in place of a floppy drive. All modern computersy have USB connections. If you need to read a floppy disk and you computer does not have a floppy disk drive, you can purchase a USB connected floppy disk drive for your computer.
The best way to disable a floppy disk drive is to disable the floppy interface from the system BIOS. This should remove all traces of the floppy disk drive to the operating system. It is also easier to reverse should the disk need to be enabled again later,
Most modern laptops do not have space for a floppy drive internally, so this is impossible on them. If you have an old laptop that has space for a floppy drive internally, it probably already has one so you don't need to install one. However if that existing internal floppy drive has failed you will have to replace it (assuming you can find a floppy drive to replace it with). To replace the existing internal floppy drive you will need the manufacturer's documents on how to open the laptop's case, get access to the floppy drive, and swap out the old one and replace it with the new one. This will almost certainly require special tools (e.g. torx drivers, wrenches) that you don't already have and will need to buy if you don't already frequently do such work.
In order to use a floppy disc you need to have a floppy disc drive.These days most computers don't have them at all, as they are so old floppy discs are hard to find..and the maximum capacity of a floppy disc is only 1.44Mb. I recently tried to buy some , but I couldn't find any at 15 different computer shops
Usually, you will just need to insert the floppies into the floppy disk drive on a computer. If your computer does not have a floppy drive (most made since 2003 don't), you will need to purchase an external floppy drive. These connect to your computer through a USB port. After you plug it in and insert a disk, you should be able to find the drive and view your pictures.
