This particular problem is mainly due to an internal head amplifier failure or, more seriously, a head crash or misalignment problem, the majority of which are recoverable.

Do you have any computers with floppy disk drives in the library?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) | University Library | UW-...
Most of the public access computers in the library have DVD/CD drives and a USB port for flash drives only. They do not have floppy disk drives. Some computers near the Reference Desk on the main (second) floor still have floppy disk drives; ask a reference librarian to point them out if needed.

Mtools says "12 bit FAT on a: sure?" when trying to access an ED disk (or a similar message) when formatting a disk Some ED (extra density) disks use 16 bit FATS. The FAT type (12 or 16 bit) is described in the configuration file (/etc/mtools or ~/.mtoolsrc). It is the first number. Example: A /dev/fd0 12 0 0 0 ^^ 12 bit FAT CAUTION: If you have an /etc/mtools file AND an ~/.

This particular problem is mainly due to an internal head amplifier failure or, more seriously, a head crash or misalignment problem, the majority of which are recoverable.

What are the currently known reasons for an assay FAILURE?

SNP Scoring > Frequently Asked Questions
Reason: The AcycloPrime reaction uses an excess of SNP primer over dye-AcycloTerminators and thus once the "correct" terminators are used up the DNA polymerase will attempt to incorporate mis-matched bases. Reason: It is critical that both the excess primers and dNTPs are removed from the reaction using Exo and SAP before performing the AcycloPrime step, remaining primers result in "false" sites being interrogated and dNTPs permit elongation longer than the single base addition desired.

Is it true that the computer lab computers do not have floppy disk drives?

PBU Student Computing Program - Questions and Answers
A:Yes. As of 2005, the computer lab computers are no longer equipped with floppy drives. This is because floppy disks are an out-dated technology that has been replaced by more efficient, more reliable alternatives. These include USB flash drives as well as network storage space which we provide to our students via our iFolder system.

Q16: Can I use the newer floppy drives on my old machine?

comp.os.cpm Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
You can. 3.5" and 5.25" are fully hardware compatible and your computer will never notice the difference ­ unless the 5.25 are HD drives. As 3.5" drives are able to step faster and draw less current, this direction of swapping is totally uncritical. The other way round sometimes proves more tricky. Both 3.5" and 5.25" drives have the same 34 pin interface. 3.5" disks spin at 300 RPM thus the 250k/500k data rates. 5.

What are the positive reasons for configuring drives as a RAID 1?

RAID 1 Data Recovery FAQ | Vantage Data Recovery (800)487-56...
A RAID 1 (mirroring) set will provide redundancy, or protection against one of the drives failing during use. With a RAID 1 disk volume, information is written to the first drive and then to a second (or "mirror") drive at the same time. If one of the hard drives in the mirror volume fails, the remaining hard drive can be placed in service as a single drive with no loss of information. Similar to a RAID 0 (striped) volume, RAID 1 volumes require a minimum of two (2) drives.

What are two major reasons for premature gear reducer failure?

Speed Reducer Frequently Asked Questions
Some of the most common causes for premature failure of a reducer include improper selection for the application, changing the motor horsepower or speed, incorrect alignment of couplings, improper or insufficient lubrication, and lack of regular maintenance. Example: An application requires 700 in-lbs of torque at 90 RPM utilizing a 1HP 1750 RPM motor (36 in-lbs. of torque generated from 1HP motor SCI) Option 1 - 20:1 reducer with 720 in-lbs of output torque capacity.

Can I hot swap my CD-ROM, Floppy, Zip, and DVD drives in the options bay?

Dave's Portable Computer Information Site ~ FAQ's
For the Inspiron 3000, 3200, & 7500 the answer is NO, this will not work, as the BIOS must detect which drive is present during initial bootup, and the Operating System gets it's information about which drive is present from the BIOS. You have to shutdown to change drives. Admittedly some people have reported success with Hot Swapping by logging out of Windows and logging back in again. Why that would work is a mystery and it is not a good idea.
