Format, capacity and compatibility

Product / part IDFujitsu CA90002-C013 640 MB Magneto-Optical Disk
Generation / formatFujitsu 3.5-inch rewritable 640 MB magneto-optical media
Capacity and mediumFujitsu CA90002-C013, 3.5-inch rewritable magneto-optical disk, 640 MB capacity class. The medium is cartridge-enclosed; it is not a CD/DVD drive or 230 MB Sony MO disk.
CompatibilityUse only in a 3.5-inch MO drive whose manual lists 640 MB media (e.g., supported Fujitsu M2513/MCC/MCG generation models); a 128/230/540 MB-only drive may not write or recognize this generation. SCSI/ATAPI interface and host filesystem are additional constraints.
Version and model caveatPart CA90002-C013 identifies this Fujitsu 640 MB medium; other part suffixes and 3.5-inch MO capacities may have different compatibility. Do not infer fit from shell appearance or the generic “MO” label.

Handling and preservation

Keep the protective shutter closed and disk in its case. Avoid dust, scratches, moisture, direct heat, impact, and opening the shell. Store upright in stable conditions and preserve contents as read-only images with verified checksums before aging hardware fails.

  • Preserve original packaging, label, acquisition notes and any write-protect state; photograph the media before use.
  • Make at least two independent copies of valuable data, verify checksums, and periodically test a restore. A removable cartridge or card alone is not an archival strategy.

Model and version notes

Part CA90002-C013 identifies this Fujitsu 640 MB medium; other part suffixes and 3.5-inch MO capacities may have different compatibility. Do not infer fit from shell appearance or the generic “MO” label.

Standards and product-family sources establish the generation; exact model manuals, labels, regional revisions, firmware, interface and host support determine actual interchangeability.
