@crisps@mastodon.social @flq@freiburg.social @Natasha_Jay@tech.lgbt It's a 3½" diskette. Usually 1.44 MB capacity.
The upper white rectangle is the paper label for writing on. The lower one is a sliding metal shutter, with an oval opening through which the read/write heads access the disk when it's inserted in the drive.
