Chapter 6 Troubleshooting
7. If the cables are securely attached, and the drive still does not work, replace the cables with known good
cables, one at a time.
8. If the problem persists, and/or there is an error code, replace the faulty part (the drive, the system board, etc.)
9. If the problem persists, check for environmental problems that could damage disk media and disk drive
heads.
Environmental problems result from:
o Radiated Interference: Sources include communications and radar installations (such as at an airport),
radio/TV broadcast transmitters, and hand-held receivers.
o Airborne Contaminants: Sources include dust, smoke, and ashes. Steam from duplication equipment
may result in intermittent disk errors.
