Message-ID: <1592@uwmacc.UUCP> Date: Fri, 5-Jun-87 10:50:14 EDT Article-I.D.: uwmacc.1592 Posted: Fri Jun 5 10:50:14 1987 Date-Received: Tue, 9-Jun-87 06:58:36 EDT Distribution: na Organization: UWisconsin-Madison Academic Comp Center Lines: 12 A small debate exists between me and a colleague about whether ST238 drives have an auto-park feature at power off time. He swears it doesn't, because he hears something different if he uses the SHIP command before power off (that is, he hears something different at the next power on). I say there's a spring that makes SHIP unnecessary. Somebody out there must KNOW (I mean for *sure*).
