Floppy Disk Recovery Information

Small disk that can be removed from the computer, though they are not all "floppy." The most common name for them was diskette. The usual method of software delivery is by floppy disk, frequently now, however by CD-ROM when size of the files or quantity of data is very large. Floppy disks were sometimes single sided and sometimes had data on both sides. Data was written in single density, double density, quad density, high density, low density and ultra density. Popular sizes over the years have been 8", 5.25" and 3.5" disks. The 3.5" disk was correctly known as rigid but is still generally termed as a floppy disk. There were also some unpopular sizes such as 14", 7" and 2.5" disks. Most used "soft sectoring" to allow software formatting of the media. However, there were hard sector disks that could not be reformatted.
