Disk Drive
========
{{:blocks:disk_drive.png?nolink&128|}}

Allows reading and writing [[item:floppy|floppies]]. ComputerCraft floppies are also supported.

The main use of floppies - except being cheaper than hard drives - is to get data onto robots, since they cannot connect to external components, and only have a component slot for floppies, but not for hard drives. If you have the materials, you can build a tier three case, which has a built-in disk drive. Until then, this block is your new best friend.

The Disk Drive is crafted using the following recipe:
  * 4 x Iron ingot
  * 1 x Piston
  * 1 x Stick
  * 1 x [[item:materials|Microchip (Tier 1)]]
  * 1 x [[item:materials|Printed Circuit Board]]
