Abstract
A disk storage device (12, 14) for a data processing system (18) has a protective carrier (14) for the disk (12) configured for insertion of the diskette (12, 14) in a disk drive (16) and removal of the diskette (12, 14) from the disk drive (16). A label (10) has a sheet (19) bearing indicia (24) pertinent to the diskette (12, 14). Flexible strip fasteners (20) are connected between and attach the label (10) to the protective carrier (14). The flexible strip fasteners (20) have a sufficient length and are positioned between the protective carrier (14) and the label (10) so that the label (10) is positioned with the indicia (24) visible to a user of the data processing system (18) when the diskette (12, 14) is in the disk drive (16).
