[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Hard Drive information

leekil@athena.mit.edu (Lee S Kilpatrick) (03/31/88)

I have a hard drive which was given to me and I am currently trying to
get it to work with my Amiga 2000.  I have absolutely no documentation
of any sort for it, so I am trying to find out a few pieces of
strategic information.  All I know is that the drive says on it (on
the board) Microscience International Corporation and is Model HH612C.
It was previously used in an IBM PC and was probably designed with the
PC in mind (as at the time it was made the PC was the major personal
computer hard drive consumer).

If anyone knows the following information, a reply would be greatly
appreciated:


	1) Number of heads

	2) Number of cylinders

	3) Sectors per track

	4) Write pre-comp cylinder

	5) Cylinder to park heads at
	
	6) How to set drive number

	7) What the dip switches on the drive are for


   Thanks,
