Claim 1

A holder for personal computer hard case floppy diskettes molded of plastic as an integral unit, comprising a generally planar two-sided page for storage of hard case diskettes, each page side of the holder having a three row and two column array of receptacles rigidly connected together and disposed in back-to-back relation with said receptacles forming said array on the other page side of the holder, each receptacle having an entry wall with an opening therein for grasping of the diskette, a base wall spaced from said entry wall by substantially the width of the diskette, a pair of opposed sidewalls extending between said entry and base walls and spaced apart by substantially the transverse width of the diskette, and a planar floor, said entry and base walls and said sidewalls projecting sufficiently away from said floor to restrict lateral movement of the diskette from said receptacle in all four lateral directions, each said entry wall of each said receptacle on one page side of the holder being formed as a coplanar continuous wall with said base wall of a corresponding receptacle on the other page side of the holder, and each said sidewall of each of said receptacles on one page side of the holder being formed as a coplanar continuous wall with an opposite one of said sidewalls of a corresponding receptacle on the other page side, said receptacles in each column on both page sides being arranged with said entry wall of one receptacle positioned adjacent to and above said base wall of the next adjacent receptacle in the column on the same page side to form a coplanar continuous wall comprising said entry wall of one receptacle, said base wall of the next adjacent receptacle on the same page side and said entry wall of a corresponding receptacle on the other page side, said floor of each of said receptacles on one page side of the holder being a common floor with the corresponding one of said receptacles on the other page side of the holder, said floors of said receptacles in each row have a coplanar orientation angled relative to the general plane of the holder and said floors of said receptacles in each column are disposed in a substantially parallel spaced apart planar relation to the next adjacent receptacle in the column, each receptacle further having a resilient tab generally centrally positioned between said sidewalls and extending from said base wall partially toward said entry wall, said tab being spaced from said floor to bias the diskette stored therein against said floor for removable retention in said receptacle, said tab being resiliently yieldable to permit the edge portion of the diskette exposed at said entry wall opening to be lifted away from said floor and above said entry wall by grasping the exposed portion of the diskette for subsequent pulling over entry wall for removal from said receptacle.
