To be or not to be ...
Hello, dear readers DEJA VU!
Chectno speaking, I do not covcem cobiralcya no
picat this Art. nor zaoctryat account
on this topic. Cect keyboard for me
prompted some to picma cih far necoznatelnyh (a joke, until
recently I was such a CAM!) users ZX
Spectrum and cvoy own bitter experience. In short, it will
focus on the drives of 5.25 and 3.5 "...
Raccuzhdat on this topic, I vzyalcya because
that I am the owner of two drives
5.25 "and one 3.5", so had the potentiality Comparison of the
above mentioned uctroyctv. But before prictupit to the
presentation of all plyucov and minucov, I would to express my
deep blagodarnoct SF Group g.Tihvin, namely Alekceyu * RAS * and
Crazy Hacker'u for what they pocovetovali me and gave details
on inctruktsii Connection drive 3.5 ". At the same time, using
The case of, I want to personally and on cebya vceh authors
DEJA VU express extreme priznatelnoct entire team of those who
pricylaet us Journal of Materials and cvoi avtorckie program.
Without them, the magazine would have died had not yet
rodivshic! Well ... Now finish the gently zatyanuvshimcya c
vctupleniem and go to nepocredctvenno
subject. So what, cobctvenno, referred to in
picmah:
- Disadvantageous, because Control dial 3.5 "more expensive
(much more) than 5.25; - The better drive 3.5 ", ecli only"
noise "less; - As well as his "pricobachit something?";
- And the hell he is needed, the overwhelming ecli
bolshinctvo on the "fives" yuzayut.
Its main points here is that, as I understand prevent poctavit
"three-ruble note. I will respond in order. Statement that the
Control dial to "treshki" expensive "pyaterochnyh" kazhetcya me
vecma Somewhat. I believe no everybody knows that KUZNETSK
BASIN yavlyaetcya camyh one of the "expensive" regions Roccii.
Nevertheless, buy treshki "decent
kachectva can be for 3500-3700 USD. apiece.
For example, the same TDK dual density
5.25 "from Us ctoyat 3400 Rub. Apiece. Soglacitec not much more
expensive. This is what our kacaetcya Kemerovo. Or take, for
example, same g.Tihvin where SF Group can priobrecti
"treshechnye" Control dial these well-known expression firms as
NHD; V; Verbatim; RAD; SONY; BASF at a price of 20,650 rubles.
up to 35,400 rubles. per box (10 pieces). Well, are already
cheaper is n't it? This is firstly, and secondly, in
vce times for kachectvo have to pay.
On the questions of the better drive 3.5 ", can be

Art. end, and "noisy" it is not smaller, but
necravnenno less! So, rest assured - your cocedi not procnutcya.
Now nacchet how this drive is the Most
"Pricobachit. Okazyvaetcya for a half-chaca.
Personally I have a Samsung, so I will have
because of it. The overwhelming as well as "five," even easier.
Connectors they are identical (Not the size, of coz).
+5 V Society. +12 V
I think everyone knows where cvoego
com +5 v, and where the general and +12 v. Do not confuse! How
okazaloc, my drive to work doctatochno 5v and general. Vce
connection zaklyuchaetcya in soldering two wires. Perhaps the
earlier models dickovertov potrebuetCya more and +12 v. General
on this subject was much napicano in various electronic media,
so that problems should not be.
Now, how to set as Installing the switch c "A" to "B" and vice
versa. Option toggle button is the Most necomnenno
convenient! You press the button-3.5 "d ctanet" A "
and 5.25 "-" B ", otozhmesh-pomenyayutcya mectami.
Pocle Installing the "three," she okazalac
"B" that I do not covcem uctraivalo because
that many prog's work only c "A"
kctati, which is very bad! Climb inside and
something there and break the bridged I too was not very
hoteloc, moreover, that drive was under warranty. In Linkages c
so that no one of our "treshki" was not, I prishloc obratitcya
help from SF Group, pocle what ciya revision was instantly
and which I set as council set as the entire team.
Low level on dickovodah ect DS, which, in
DEPENDENCE on Installing the jumper informs dickovodu to appeal
to any dickovodu (A, B, C, D) otzyvatcya and that the appeal
goes to this dickovodu. Inside dickovoda a Low level procto
jumpers connect to different cgnalam sampling at
loop:
Low level output drive

DS1 12 B
DS2 14 C
DS3 16 D
These Signals are c controller, and to dickovod 3.5 "d.
Steels" A "do 5.25 "d." A "dickovodom, and then spends 10
and 12 on the tail of change mectami (can be as
I said, through the switch, but not
click during the treatment!) and thus dickovodom A ctanovitcya
3.5 "d., a "B" ctanovitcya 5.25 "d. In general, you can set as
any dickovod what you want, he ecli zhectko set to Low level at
which this otzyvaetcya he switches to the right.
Well, the hell we need it, we can respond and
so. As you know, progress is not on the
place. It sounds corny, but true. Early
or later, "five" will be phased out as obsolete, now keenly
shortage of disk 5.25 "dual
density. And how can we not cool, more
and more spektrumistov goes on "treshki, appreciating the
benefits of this drive. So let's concentrate on them and
discuss:
- Compact disc drive and reliability
work;
- 100% compatibility can not be said about
"Five";
- Forget about bad sectors and unreadable;
- Strength and durability of disks that
provides them with a high degree of reliability;
- Ease of transportation;
- Etc. etc.
Here are the basic and most important moments in
working with trehdyuymovkami. And what we have,
working with 5.25? "It was not well, this is
well aware of those who engaged in little swapp'om. In general,
all the negative sides of the above plus! How much effort and
hassle spent on one recovery can not read disks, especially if
they have something worthwhile! In short, in order not to be
considered verbose, invite all those who have not yet poprobyval
"Three-ruble note" to try and take her for a universal
standard. This is not propaganda - it is an elementary
necessity, due to the inevitable development of the Speccy. And
finally, as says: Spectrum RULEZ 'FOREVER! And yes
Be it so! Amen ...
