And it's usually NOT a good idea to put your LAST boot disk into the
drive! Although normally not a problem with most "normal" drives, there
have been SOME (most notably Apple ][) that were capable of malfuntioning
in ways that would cause them to erase/wipe/damage/ diskettes even when
write-protected!
What an amazing feature!
