          Appeal No. 95-2439                                                          
          Application No. 08/080,353                                                  

               We further disagree with appellants that there is no                   
          motivation, from the prior art, “to adjust the drive’s reset                
          and seek parameters in response to the current available power              
          supplied to the disk drive unit”  [brief, top of page 8].                   
          While the applied references may not teach the adjustment                   
          disclosed and intended by appellants,  as was pointed out                   
          supra, the adjustment, as broadly claimed, is believed to have              
          been suggested by Morimoto.                                                 
               Since we have responded to all of appellants’ arguments                
          and the arguments do not convince us of any error in the                    
          examiner’s rejection of the claimed subject matter set forth                
          in independent claim 1, we will sustain the examiner’s                      
          rejection of claims 1 through 5 and 9 through 12 under 35                   
          U.S.C. ' 103.                                                               
               The examiner’s decision is affirmed.                                   


               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                    
          ' 1.136 (a).                                                                
                                      AFFIRMED                                        








                                          8
