Attachin the Diskette Drive Externally
1. When a diskette drive is attached externally, another diskette
drive cannot be installed in the UltraslimBay
2. The external diskette drive and a diskette drive in the
docking station use a common port. You can use two
diskette drives among three locations (external, docking
station, and UltraslimBay) at the same time. For information
on supported diskette drives combinations, see Table 1 on
page 22.
Enabling Warm Attachment of an External Diskette Drive
When your computer is shipped, the diskette drive is recognized as a
warm-swappable device for the UltraslimBay (For an explanation of
warm swapping
page 90.) If you typically use the diskette drive
externally, you can set its configuration to allow warm attachment
externally to your computer.
To enable warm attachment, enter PS2 FDD External at the DOS
prompt. After you reboot your computer, you can warm-attach the
external diskette drive to your computer.
The diskette drive is no longer recognized as a warm-swappable
* device for the UltraslimBay, however. To restore the previous
* configuration, enter PS2 FDD Internal at the DOS prompt. After you
reboot your computer, the diskette drive is recognized as a
warm-swappable device for the UltraslimBay (and no longer as an
external diskette drive).
