Default Floppy disk

"A floppy disk is a data storage device that is composed of a disk of thin, flexible (""floppy"") magnetic storage medium encased in a square or rectangular plastic shell. Floppy disks are read and written by a floppy disk drive or FDD, the latter initialism not to be confused with ""fixed disk drive"", which is an old IBM term for a hard disk drive.

A floppy disk is a removable data storage device which is used to store the data. It is composed of a disk of thin, flexible ("floppy") magnetic storage medium sealed in a square or rectangular plastic carrier lined with fabric that removes dust particles. Floppy disk are slower in terms of access than hard disk drives. It also has less storage capacity. But it is much less expensive than hard disk drives. There are various size of floppy disks available in the market such as 8 inch, 5 inch, 3 inch etc.
