Damaged Media - HP 9130K Service Manual

1-8
General Information
Do Not Bend or Fold the Disc
The disc is flexible but will not operate if it is creased. Using ball point pens,
rubber bands, paper clips, etc. can crease the disc.
Do Not Try to Clean a Disc
The inside surface of the disc jacket is covered with a special material that cleans the disc as
it rotates. Any other method of cleaning may cause solvent damage to the media or scratch
the disc, causing loss of data. If a disc becomes dirty or scratched, immediately copy the
data to a new disc and dispose of the old disc.

CAUTION
IF MEDIA IS EVER DESTROYED (IF IT LOOKS ANYTHING
LIKE THE PHOTO BELOW) IN YOUR 9130K DISC DRIVE,
STOP USING THE DRIVE UNTIL IT CAN BE SERVICED. THIS
IS EXCEPTIONALLY IMPORTANT, AS CONTINUED USE OF
THE DRIVE WILL DESTROY MORE MEDIA. IMMEDIATELY
CALL YOUR NEAREST HP SALES SERVICE OFFICE (SEE THE

Figure 1-3: Damaged Media
Insert the flexible disc into the drive as shown in Figure 1-4 (be sure that the label side faces
up). Push the disc in until you feel it bottom out against the rear of the disc drive, then close
the drive door latch. Never force the latch, as the media can be latched off center within the
protective jacket.
