floppy drives and cables
In message , Paul
writes: [] The twisted part, consists of four active signals. Two for each drive. The twist swaps the signals, so that one connector can have an A personality and the other a B personality. (Just like a CS Cable Select method.) [] I've always assumed it was that, and thought it was a clever solution (admittedly, requiring unusual cable construction). So presumably there is something like (_at the drive_): 01 - A 10 - B (or vice versa). Does that mean there is the _possibility_ of _four_ drives, using up the 00 and 11 options? -- J. P. Gilliver.

Even if they've never posted a nude picture, it will reconstruct their bum from bits of their face and leg and whatever else they can find. - Charlie Brooker, RT 2014/12/13-19 |
