ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A floppy disc drive with automatic disc clamping and ejection is disclosed. The linear actuator is used to provide both the clamping and ejection, without other drive means. A pair of magnetic heads are fixed to a carriage, one engages the upper surface of the disc, the other the lower surface. Neither head moves relative to the other. The drive components are easily assembled providing a relatively inexpensive, yet reliable drive.
