Single density, often shortened SD, is a capacity designation on magnetic storage, usually floppy disks. It describes the use of an encoding (or modulation) of information using Frequency modulation, also known as biphase mark code.
Early floppy disk drives used this method, but they are now obsolete. It was quickly replaced by double density floppy drives using modified frequency modulation (MFM).

Famous quotes containing the word single:
“What is saved in the cinema when it achieves art is a spontaneous continuity with all mankind. It is not an art of the princes or the bourgeoisie. It is popular and vagrant. In the sky of the cinema people learn what they might have been and discover what belongs to them apart from their single lives.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
