What else can I help you with?
When a diskette is write-protected does it mean that data on the diskette can only be renamed?
No, when a diskette is write-protected, it means that data on the diskette cannot be modified, deleted, or overwritten. This protection prevents any changes to the existing files, but you can still read the data and copy it to another location. Renaming files is typically not possible either, as that action also involves modifying the diskette's contents.
What are floppy diskette drives?
Floppy diskette drives read and write information to a single rotating disk that can be removed from the drive.
Is a diskette a software?
A "diskette" or "floppy disk" is neither as they are removable magnetic storage media. However, if you refer to the drives that read from them or write to them, then those drives are considered hardware.

Diskette is the correct spelling.
What is write protect notch in diskette?
The write protect notch - prevents data being written to a disk. Have a look at the picture in the related link. The two largest disks have a notch cut out from the outer case (see the right-hand side of the disk in the middle of the picture. The 31/2" disk has a moveable 'tab' usually black - which is visible in the bottom left corner of the blue case.

Is it correct to expose a diskette to a magnetic field yes or no?
That might erase or damage the data on the diskette.
What are the parts of diskette?
The DriveThe major parts of a FDD include:Read/Write Heads: Located on both sides of a diskette, they move together on the same assembly. The heads are not directly opposite each other in an effort to prevent interaction between write operations on each of the two media surfaces. The same head is used for reading and writing, while a second, wider head is used for erasing a track just prior to it being written. This allows the data to be written on a wider "clean slate," without interfering with the analog data on an adjacent track.Drive Motor: A very small spindle motor engages the metal hub at the center of the diskette, spinning it at either 300 or 360 rotations per minute (RPM).Stepper Motor: This motor makes a precise number of stepped revolutions to move the read/write head assembly to the proper track position. The read/write head assembly is fastened to the stepper motor shaft.Mechanical Frame: A system of levers that opens the little protective window on the diskette to allow the read/write heads to touch the dual-sided diskette media. An external button allows the diskette to be ejected, at which point the spring-loaded protective window on the diskette closes.Circuit Board: Contains all of the electronics to handle the data read from or written to the diskette. It also controls the stepper-motor control circuits used to move the read/write heads to each track, as well as the movement of the read/write heads toward the diskette surface.FROM: http://computer.howstuffworks.com/floppy-disk-drive2.htm
