Hard Disk
Drive

The Extensa computer comes with a
810-million byte (810 MB) or higher
capacity hard disk drive. The hard disk
drive is formatted and loaded with
software during manufacture. Do not
format the hard disk.

Floppy Disk
Drive

All models come with a floppy disk
drive. In models with a CD-ROM drive,
you can use the floppy disk externally
by connecting it to the parallel port.

The floppy disk drive can access
formatted 3.5-inch, double-sided, high-
density (2HD), 1.44 MB floppy disks
and lower capacity, 720 KB, double-
density (2DD) floppy disks. The floppy
disk drive does not function at low
speed with the OS/2™ or Xenix
operating systems.

CD-ROM
Drive

The Extensa 600CD and 605CD comes
with a CD-ROM drive, bringing you
portable multimedia.
