If you guru during no read or write operation to floppy then there is no difference with our without Facc. If you guru during a read from floppy then there is no difference with or without Facc (in fact, Facc might even prevent disk damage if the sector was being read from an internal buffer thus the heads would *not* be in motion when the guru occured). If the guru happened during a write operation, Facc is specifically designed to ensure that Floppy writes occur in the same manner that they would if Facc was not present. In summation, Facc will not alter the survivability of data in any way.
