Aluminum has been found in the disk drives of machines with this syndrome.
There is no correlation with the amount of external aluminum to which the
machine is exposed, thus no reason to avoid an environment rich in aluminum.
The aluminum is thought to be due to a characteristic inherent in the
memory which exhibits the syndrome, although the presence of the material
is not an indication of the syndrome.
