I've installed 13 of these drives and they all work fine. This is the format.dat entry we've been using: disk_type = "CRANEL-M2263SA" \ : ctlr = MD21 \ : ncyl = 1656 : acyl = 2 : pcyl = 1658 : nhead = 15 : nsect = 50 \ : rpm = 3600 : bpt = 31296 I started looking through the OEM manual and noticed I was using different jumper settings from the factory defaults. Does anybody know the "correct" settings for jumper block CNH2? This is what I have set now. pins 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, 9-10 shorted, all others open. Would I get better performance by enabling the 3 to 4 MB/s transfer jumper? Does it work on the Sun scsi bus? I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but these are in use on 3 different systems: SparcStation 1+ internal scsi, 4/370 internal scsi controller and a 4/280 with a scsi host adaptor.
