      7d661c6c       From: ohland@charter.net              So, I am quite kontuzed.              So, we have a DBA-ESDI drive. FAIK, it is a Physical CHS device.              IBM defines it as Cylinders [Data, Spare, CE, Primary, Secondary, and       Factory Defect]. So, in some drives, there are 33 sectors in a track.              But... how many tracks in a cylinder?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
