Parameters[edit]

All parameters are optional.

title

Name of the storage medium as displayed above the infobox. When not specified, contents of |name= parameter will be displayed instead.

Reserved for special cases when a description beyond telling the obvious is needed, or for inserting ((ffdc)) or ((deletable image-caption)).

image_alt

Alternative text of the image; very important.

type

encoding

capacity

Maximum supported capacities/capacity of the storage medium.

blocksize

Block size employed by the storage medium.
