The system may include a housing, a spindle motor, a plurality of flexible disks, a first head, a second head, a first mechanism, and a second mechanism. The spindle motor may be coupled with the housing and operably coupled with the plurality of flexible disks which may be spaced apart from each other. Both heads may be configured to engage different faces of a flexible disk, and may be aligned substantially parallel with each other. The first mechanism may be configured to move both heads along different faces of one flexible disk. The second mechanism may be configured to move both heads in a plane substantially perpendicular to that flexible disk and position them to engage another flexible disk, where at least one head includes a transducer configured to read and write information on the flexible disks.
