5 chapter USING THE LS-120 AND CD-ROM DRIVES Using the LS-120 Diskette Drive Some Deskpro models feature the LS-120 drive, which accepts 1.44-megabyte and 720-Kbyte diskettes, but also retrieves and stores data on 120-megabyte diskettes. 120-megabyte diskettes are available from your Compaq authorized dealer or reseller. To learn more about using the LS-120 Drive with various operating systems, please refer to the ASCII text file located at C:\LS120.TXT on your computer. Inserting and Removing Diskettes Diskette insertion and removal is the same for the LS-120 drive as it is for a standard 1.44-megabyte diskette drive. Be sure to wait until the diskette drive light is off before you remove the diskette from the diskette drive. When the drive light is on, the drive is either reading information from the diskette or storing information on the diskette. Removing the diskette during either of these operations may damage the diskette drive or cause you to lose information. If the diskette fails to eject automatically, or if the power to the computer is turned off, you can remove the diskette manually by using the emergency eject feature. To manually eject an LS-120 diskette, complete the following steps: CAUTION: Before beginning this procedure, be sure to turn off the power to your computer and disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
