Connect Hardware Floppy
Connects a virtual floppy drive of a powered-on virtual machine to its backing. Connecting the virtual device makes the backing accessible from the perspective of the guest operating system. For a powered-off virtual machine, the Floppy.update operation may be used to configure the virtual floppy drive to start in the connected state when the virtual machine is powered on.

Disconnect Hardware Floppy
Disconnects a virtual floppy drive of a powered-on virtual machine from its backing. The virtual device is still present and its backing configuration is unchanged, but from the perspective of the guest operating system, the floppy drive is not connected to its backing resource. For a powered-off virtual machine, the Floppy.update operation may be used to configure the virtual floppy floppy to start in the disconnected state when the virtual machine is powered on.
