QuickSpecs Iomega Zip Drives Overview Models Zip 250 High Capacity Drive DC140B Zip 750 High Capacity Drive DC518B Introduction Iomega Zip High Capacity Disk Drives are the popular choice for high-capacity removable media. Iomega Zip disks are more durable than CD-RW and make organizing, sharing, and backing up files easier than ever. Performance Working like a floppy disk, Zip drives read and write data at a rate up to 20 times faster than traditional diskette drives. The Zip 250 drive stores up to 170 diskettes and the Zip 750 drive stores up to 500 diskettes, eliminating the need for multiple standard 1.44-MB diskettes* NOTE: 750MB or 250MB capacity where 1 MB = 1 million bytes. The capacity reported by a particular operating system may vary. Compatibility The Iomega Zip 250 and Zip 750 Drives are compatible with all HP Compaq Business Desktops with the exception of ultra-slim desktops. Service and Support Your Option Limited Warranty is a one (1) year (HP Option Limited Warranty Period) parts replacement warranty on any HP-branded or Compaq-branded options (HP Options).

Chapter 1 PC Architecture
Chapter PC Architecture THE FOLLOWING OBJECTIVES ARE COVERED IN THIS CHAPTER: 1 1.1 Identify the names, purpose, and characteristics, of system modules. Recognize these modules by sight or definition. 1.5 Identify the names, purposes, and performance characteristics, of standardized/common peripheral ports, associated cabling, and their connectors. Recognize ports, cabling, and connectors, by sight. COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL A personal computer (PC) is a computing device made up of many distinct electronic components that all function together in order to accomplish some useful task (such as adding up the numbers in a spreadsheet or helping you write a letter). By this definition, note that we’re describing a computer as having many distinct parts that work together. Most computers today are modular. That is, they have components that can be removed and replaced with a component of similar function in order to improve performance. Each component has a very specific function. In this chapter, you will learn about the components that make up a typical PC, what their function is, and how they work together inside the PC. Unless specifically mentioned otherwise, throughout this book the terms PC and computer can be used interchangeably. The components in most computers include: The case The power supply The motherboard The processor /CPU Memory Storage devices The adapter cards Display devices Ports and cables As you read this chapter, please keep in mind that many of these parts will be covered in more detail in later chapters. Figure 1.1 shows an example of a typical PC and illustrates how some of these parts fit together.

The wheels, joined to form a large drum (cylinder), spin at high speed and paper and an inked ribbon is stepped (moved) past the print position. As the desired character for each column passes the print position, a hammer strikes the paper from the rear and presses the paper against the ribbon and the drum, causing the desired character to be recorded on the continuous paper.

UNIX Administration Course
UNIX Administration Course Copyright 1999 by Ian Mapleson BSc. Version 1.0 [email protected] Tel: (+44) (0)1772 893297 Fax: (+44) (0)1772 892913 WWW: http://www.futuretech.vuurwerk.nl/ Detailed Notes for Day 3 (Part 2) UNIX Fundamentals: Organising a network with a server. This discussion explains basic concepts rather than detailed ideas such as specific ’topologies’ to use with large networks, or how to organise complex distributed file systems, or subdomains and address spaces - these are more advanced issues which most admins won’t initially have to deal with, and if they do then the tasks are more likely to be done as part of a team. The SGI network in Ve24 is typical a modern UNIX platform in how it is organised. The key aspects of this organisation can be summarised as follows: A number of client machines and a server are connected together using a hub (24-port in this case) and a network comprised of 10Mbit Ethernet cable (100Mbit is more common in modern systems, with Gigabit soon to enter the marketplace more widely). Each client machine has its own unique identity, a local disk with an installed OS and a range of locally installed application software for use by users. The network has been configured to have its own subdomain name of a form that complies with the larger organisation of which it is just one part (UCLAN). The server has an external connection to the Internet. User accounts are stored on the server, on a separate external disk. Users who login to the client machines automatically find their own files available via the use of the NFS service.
