First power-on test of the latest acquisition is successful.

But I wonder, is it normal for the #disk #drive #led to stay on all the time if no disk is inserted?!

and is ther anybody here in continental #europe who could send me a #copy of the original CP/M #bootdisk for the CPC6128?

"Ubiquity installer installed the bootloader in the wrong SSD" by Milli189

So the default installer of #AnduinOS is called Ubiquity, which was the old installer that #Ubuntu used, and it has a longtime issue where it will install the bootloader on a random #disk if you have more than one, so now I've installed AnduinOS on an external ssd, but Ubiquity installed the bootloader inside of my primary SSD.

When I was a kid, I didn't know what the “thump thump thump” sound coming from a #floppy #disk drive was.

It also made a buzzing sound, which I figured was the head moving back and forth, but the thump was a mystery.

I'm still not sure, but I'm guessing it's the stepper motor moving by a single track. Am I right?

Here's a screenshot ot a #privacy #OS. It is a #Linux system, that writes nothing to the #disk on which it is installed, so you can browse the internet and as you logout the browsing history is deleted. This tool is used for repairing operating system and recovering data.

Linux Swap Memory: Evolution, Tuning, and Modern Enhancements

Linux Swap is an essential component of the Linux virtual memory system. It provides an area on disk—whether as a dedicated partition or a swap file—that the operating system can use as overflow space when physical memory (RAM) is fully utilized.

https://www.zdnet.com/article/why-raid-5-stops-working-in-2009/

Summary: #RAID 5 was dead in 2009 due to the size of disks. #Disks are guaranteed to have unrecoverable read error (URE) every N sectors of reading. Disks by that time were already over N sectors in size, so these errors were inevitable during rebuilds after one #disk failure. In other words, array failure was guaranteed for RAID 5 at the sizes of the time. The same would soon be true of RAID 6 as disk capacities increased and URE rates remained about the same.
