RE: IBM 5394 Controllers corrupting diskettes

Not on a UPS. Not too dirty a site either, plus as we speak I have
someone on-site to try to figure what is going on, and we've corrupted 6
diskettes just trying to get them back up (this is on two different
5394's that we have swapped out from the original)...perplexed...

Hi Chuck,

(1)Is this control unit on a UPS or some form of power protection ?

(2)How "dirty"/dusty is the area it is in ?

Chuck - dealing with a similar issue on a Perle 494e EVEN as we "speak"

I have 35+ locations using IBM 5394 controllers via frame-relay. One(1)
of these sites keeps corrupting the diskettes for the unit. I've tried
multiple controllers, and it happens on each one. Has anyone ever run
across this?
