SWITCHING Off, TRANSPORTING YOUR SYSTEM
NOTE ON fILE SAVING
Before you switch off your system (two disk drives/hard
disk), finish your current working session and save the
files.
SWITCHING Off A SYSTEM WITH TWO DISK
DRIVES
A system with two disk drives does not require any special
attention before you switch it off/transport it.
PROTECTING THE HARD DISK BEfORE SWITCHING Off A
SYSTEM WITH HARD DISK
Systems equipped with a hard disk require an extra step
before they are switched off/transported.
The information on the hard disk is read and written to by
means of the hard disk heads which are moved rapidly by the
system to the positions on the hard disk where information
is to be accessed.
These heads, if not protected by the procedure described
below, are likely to damage the hard disk when you
move/transport your system unless they are parked in a safe
position.
As a matter of routine we recommend you perform this
procedure to protect your hard disk before you switch off
your system.
Note that this precaution protects your system from being
damaged if, for example, it is being moved by an
unauthorized person not familiar with the system. Beware of
leaving the system unattended!
