The floppy disk was a revolution in the computer industry when it was developed by IBM in the late 1960s as a reliable and inexpensive method of loading microcode into their System/370 computer.
There are many different types of floppy disk drives that have come and gone over the years. 5 Â¼ -Inch Drive. A 5 Â¼-inch floppy disk drive was common on personal computers that were produced during the 1980's and were still included on computers in the early 1990's. A 5 Â¼ -inch floppy disk could store between 360 kilobytes and 1.2 megabytes of data. Some 5 Â½-floppy disks could be modified and used to write data to both sides of the disk. This led to manufacturers producing double-sided drives that could read both sides of the disk. 3 Â½ -Inch Drive. A 3 Â½-inch floppy drive is considered a floppy drive because the diskette uses a magnetic floppy disk that is encased in plastic.
