    • NVM-2003 with software version 2.12
  3. NVM-202 Only Backup Disk 001 - This is not a boot disk. You will use this disk only if you are using the floppy drive on an NVM and your system is an NVM-202 with software version 1.06
  4. NVM-2000 & NVM-2003 Only Backup Disk 001 - This is not a boot disk. You will use this disk only if you are using the floppy drive on an NVM and your system is an NVM-2000 with software version 2.12 or an NVM-3000 with software version 2.12
