Using Other Removable Media Q: How do I access a cdrom disk?

UT Physics Linux FAQ
The cdrom drives in our lab machines are setup to use the automounter. The automounter will automatically mount the drive for you when you access it, and unmount it when it is not being used. The cdrom will be automatically mounted under /cdrom once you access that directory. You can use most normal Ext2fs (linux) file commands on the cdrom then. Since a cdrom is read-only, commands to write to the device will not work. cd /cdrom

What is a Hot Spare Disk Cartridge?

Kaleidescape - FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
A Hot Spare Disk Cartridge is an additional Disk Cartridge installed in a 3U Server that is immediately available as a replacement if a hard disk drive fails. If an active drive fails, the Server continues to operate, no content or user-entered data is lost, and information that was stored on the failed drive is automatically restored to the hot spare. This eliminates the need for an urgent service call and provides peace of mind in marine and other remote installations. See similar questions...

What happens to a Server's capacity when a Disk Cartridge is added?

Kaleidescape - FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

How can I read a floppy disk that was written on a Mac Plus?

Mini vMac FAQ
Modern machines can’t read the 400k and 800k floppy disks used by the Mac Plus. This a hardware problem, not solvable in software - they lack the variable speed motor of the old drives. I don’t know any reason why some company couldn’t now manufacture a floppy drive that reads the old disks, but I’m not aware of anyone doing so. So the only way to read such disks is to get an old Mac. See similar questions...
