Using a 1.2M, 5.25-inch drive to write data on a
5.25-inch, 360K disk that was originally created
in a 360K disk drive will result in what problem,
if any?
1. The 1.2M drive will not write on the 360K
d i s k
2. The 360K disk will not fit into the 1.2M
d r i v e
3. The 1.2M drive will write a narrow track
through the wider track on the 360K disk,
which could result in read errors
4. None; no problem will be encountered
Formatting a 5.25-inch, 360K DSDD disk as a
1.2M HD disk will result in what problem, if
any?
1. The disk will not format because the DOS
format program will check the media
indicator on the disk and not permit the
operation
2. The disk will appear to format correctly, but
will be unreliable because of the increased
write current required for high density disks
3. The disk will appear to format correctly, but
will be unreliable because of the decreased
write current required for high density disks
4. None; no problem will be encountered
11-45. Formatting a 720K DSDD, 3.5-inch floppy disk
as a 1.44M will result in what problem, if any?
1. The disk will not format because the DOS
format program will check the media
indicator on the disk and not permit the
operation
2. The disk will appear to format correctly, but
will be unreliable because of the increased
write current required for high density disks
3. The disk will appear to format correctly, but
will be unreliable because of the decreased
write current required for high density disks
4. None; no problem will be encountered
11-46. A high-density disk can be used in a low-
density drive with no problems.
1. True
2. False

The twist in a floppy disk cable was designed for
which of the following reasons?
1. To ease floppy drive installation by setting
all drives to DS1
2. To ease floppy drive installation by setting
all drives to DS0
3. To ease floppy drive installation by setting
drive A to DS0 and drive B to DS1
The twist in a floppy drive cable cross connects
which of the following pins?
1. 10 through 16 only
2. 10 through 20
3. 20 through 26 only
4. 20 through 30

used to supply the proper load to what device
and (b) should be connected on the floppy disk at
what point on the cable?
1. (a) Computer
(b) middle
2. (a) Computer
(b) end
3. (a) Disk controller (b) middle
4. (a) Disk controller (b) end
