Saving on Floppy...
Hello!
I am trying to save on floppy to back me up in case I loose documents as I have previously done. I thought when you save, the FLOPPY would make a noise as my CD ROM does when I have one in. Can anyone help tell me anything tonight?

What are you trying to save on the floppy? Pictures? Word documents? The floppy drive usually will do quite a bit of subtle clicking when saving, as it's pretty slow. When you get done with the save, can you click on the A-drive and view the document? If you can, it's saved.
Remember, floppies are limited to 1.44 megabytes. That's smaller than the size of a single picture taken with some of the new hi-res digital cameras.

I save documents and correspondence to a floppy each day and found the drive very, very quite and have check the drive's neon for when it starts and stops.
