What is a USB SuperDisk?
Alternatively referred to as an LS-120 and LS-240, the SuperDisk is a disk drive and diskette introduced by 3M, which later became Imation. The SuperDisk drive was also backward compatible with 1.44 MB disks. Its available interfaces were IDE/ATAPI, parallel port, SCSI, and USB.
How much space is on a floppy disk?
1.44 megabytes
The first 8-inch floppy disk had a storage capacity of about 80 kilobytes. By 1986, IBM introduced the 3-1/2 inch floppy disk with 1.44 megabytes of storage space. This may seem like very little now, but at the time it was hard to imagine needing more space than that.
