    @mcc@mastodon.social @whitequark@social.treehouse.systems I&#39;ve worn out I think three sets of HGST disks on btrfs over the years and have had little problems.

    @gloriouscow@oldbytes.space it&#39;s dead then. No way someone needed a ½W resistor in a megaohm range. Yellow is 25ppm/°C

  • View post

    @gloriouscow@oldbytes.space maybe that&#39;s a brown band on the left. Then we&#39;d have 16.5 ohms which at least is in the normal E96 resistor series. Maybe yellow as a nonstd tolerance or maybe it&#39;s a tempco. Either way the value is small and you should be able to measure it in-circuit to get a feel for it&#39;s value.

    @gloriouscow@oldbytes.space 5.6 ohms, if that&#39;s a gold multiplier band, but then I&#39;m confused about the yellow. The other way up makes no sense.

    @sortius@infosec.exchange oh, please elaborate.

    @sortius@infosec.exchange it&#39;s a standard IEC 60906-1, nice and compact with good ground pin, and fits ungrounded plugs. Only downside is that the cable usually comes out straight and not at a 90° angle like the UK plug (which avoids bending the wire).

    @JetSetIlly@mastodon.gamedev.place i suspect the 29128 is the device identifier, the other might just be a stock number for Atari use. 23128 is a 128 kilobit 16KiB ROM 27128 is a 128kb EPROM 28128 is a 128kb EEPROM so it makes some sense that the 29128 is a something memory too.
