Y-E Data 6331S High Speed Industrial Drive
Simultaneous Double Sided (SDS) technology to write and verify on both sides of the diskette at the same time for even higher throughput.

Y-E Data high speed industrial drives were designed specifically for the diskette manufacturing and duplication market. Their robust design makes them the perfect choice for use in diskette autoloaders and their state of the art electronics allows technician’s to fine tune their performance to get the best possible quality diskette regardless of the media. DPN has worked with Y-E Data since the first industrial drive was developed. Our goal was to make sure that the drive would work in equipment made by all duplication equipment manufactures. In addition to the industrial drives DPN carries parts for the industrial drive so customers have the option of purchasing new drives or having existing drives repaired.

What Jumper settings should I use for my controller?
Most of the time the drive select in the only jumper that has to be moved from DS0 to DS1.

How do I test a SDS drive?
The jumper DI will have to be shunted to defeat the SDS and testing can be done.

How do I write protect on the drive?
Opening the chip jumper JWP will have pin j1-28 floating, thereby write protect is dependant
on the controller.

What is the typical life of the heads?
The life of the head is dependant on a number of factors, including media coating, overall quality of disks being used and the frequency of drive maintenance. Under ideal conditions the head should last 200,000 insertions. Poor quality disks and little or no maintenance can reduce this to below 30,000 insertions.
