An automatic micro-floppy disk loader allows a stack of micro-floppy computer disks to be fed into a disk drive, one at a time, and fed out of the drive into selector bins. The loader has self-aligning construction so that the mechanisms used to transport and control the motion of the micro-floppy disks are placed in correct alignment during manufacturing without requiring manual, individualized adjustment. The disk drive is mounted in a movable frame construction such that the disk drive can be positioned to receive micro-floppy disks, and can be further positioned to eject the micro-floppy disks onto a mechanism for transporting the ejected disks to one of the two horizontally separated bins. The improved loader construction also allows the automatic feeding of micro-floppy disks while minimizing the chances of jamming or damaging the disks, and further includes automatic means for detecting and clearing jams which occur.
