Formatting Media (Format)

The process of preparing external memory or disks so that they can be used with the

KR107 is called “initialization” (formatting).

In certain cases, particularly with floppy disks, the media is formatted for a specific

type of device. If the media format does not match the KR107’s, you will not be able

to use that media with the KR107.

NOTE

When an external memory is

initialized, all of the data

saved on the external

memory is erased. If you’re

formatting a used external

memory for reuse, be sure to

check first to make sure the

external memory doesn’t

contain any data you don’t

want to lose.

NOTE

When initializing floppy disks,

check to make sure that the

disk’s write protect tab is slid

to the “write” position.

NOTE

Do not disconnect the

external memory while data

is being read from or written

to the memory.

NOTE

Do not eject the floppy disk

while data is being read from

or written to the disk. This

may scratch the disk’s

magnetic surface, rendering

the memory unusable. (The

disk drive’s indicator lights

brightly while data is being

read from or written to the

disk. At all other times, the

indicator is lit more dimly, or

is not lit at all.)
