<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{Wikipedialink}}<br /> {{Disk|No Image|1978|1984|Many [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] computers|[[Floppy disk]]}}<br /> The '''FileWare''' disk was a higher performance alternative to the [[Apple II]] and [[Apple III]]-compatible disks. It was developed for many Apple computers of that time, but only one, the original [[Apple Lisa|Lisa]], shipped with them. They are better known by their codename, &quot;'''Twiggy'''&quot;.<br /> <br /> == Differences ==<br /> The differences between the FileWare disks and standard 5 1/4&quot; disks were:<br /> *Instead of one head, there are 2 heads.<br /> *The drives were different that the top and bottom heads are on opposite sides of the spindle, and each is opposed by a pressure pad. Since there is only one actuator to move the heads, when one head is near the spindle, the other is near the outer rim of the disk.<br /> <br /> == Reliability ==<br /> The disks and drives proved unreliable, and by 1984, the Lisa's 2 FileWare drives were replaced by a single 3 1/2&quot; drive manufactured by [[Sony]]. {{note|The [[Macintosh]] prototypes had FileWare drives too, but it was replaced too.}}<br /> <br /> {{Stub}}</div>
