The computer spins the diskette for a few seconds then displays

a message like this:

The disk rotation speed is now 300.0 rpm.

few seconds. To stop the test, press any key; the program returns

to the menu.

If you try to perform a speed test without inserting a diskette, or

Disk is defective or not installed properly.

Press ENTER to return to the menu.
