When you swap diskettes this way, it is a good idea to
write-protect the original diskette so you don’t accidentally write
over it. (See “Write-protecting Diskettes” earlier in this chapter for
more information.)
Using a Hard Disk
The hard disk installed in the ActionNote has been prepared for
use at the factory and has MS-DOS and Windows installed. If you
plan to use MS-DOS or Windows, you can install your application
programs and begin work. See the documentation that came with
your programs for instructions.
Follow these precautions to protect your hard disk from damage
and to avoid losing data:
Never turn off or reset the computer when the hard disk drive
light is on. This light indicates that the computer is copying
data to or from the hard disk.
Do not move the computer when the power is on. After
turning the power off, wait 20 seconds before moving it. This
allows the disks in the drive to stop spinning and the hard
disk read/write heads to lock in place so you do not damage
the drive.
Backing Up the Hard Disk
Although the hard disk is very reliable, be sure to backup your
files in case you lose some data accidentally. Also, make copies of
all your system and application program diskettes before copying
the programs to the hard disk. See your operating system manual
for instructions.
