## Details

Part Numbers: X1DE-14A

## Function

Reads and writes data on removable 3.5-inch floppy disks using sector-based addressing with bidirectional data transfer and a motor-driven spindle for controlled rotational speed. Provides track-seeking, head positioning, and data integrity checks via standard error correction. Interfaces to host controllers through IDE/ATA-compatible channels or equivalent, supporting high-density media and common sector formats. Delivers moderate transient latency and data transfer rates in the low hundreds of kilobytes per second, with typical desktop drive seek times and rotational latency appropriate to desktop-era storage. Suitable for archival, software distribution, and boot/operating system media tasks.
