Hi,
My comment could also be taken to mean that if hair
attached to you head
gets caught in the drive mechanism, then _your_ head will crash into some
prt of the drive chassis.
If you make jokes, you should assume that someone could
intend to get you wrong :-)
But anyway, getting back to the normal sense of
'headcrash', I am not
brave enough to try dropping a hair on a running RK05 platter to see what
happens (Yes, I have spare heads and the alignment pack, but I am not
goign to waste them). It might well be alright, but I am not going to
risk it.
I'm sure I dropped a hair on it without realizing :)
Oh, that bad
RK8E controller just confronts me with "Data break error" :-(
IIRC a ;'data break' is a bit like DMA. I do haev the prints and some
technical desription, so I could help you debug this sometime...
Ah, that was just
the beginning of the ugly stuff. I have a few board sets laying around. They all
seem to have issues. But I'll try to get them working before converting them to $$$
via eBay... My
"private" RK8E is running fine since ever.
Where to get 8235, 8251, 8271, 8881, and 380 in amounts?!?
Best wishes,
Philipp :-)
