I just received a Lapine hard disk drive as part of a trade. The guy was using
it as a 30 MB RLL drive w/ a WD 8-bit controller and had no errors.
I plan on using it as MFM, but am not sure exactly what the specifics are. It
seems to have autoparking heads, which leads me to believe perhaps it is bigger
than a 30 MB RLL (20 MFM) drive.
Anyway, the model number seems to be "TITAN 3532" and it is a 3.5" hard drive.
Anything you can tell me about it would be appreciated, including access time,
rated capacity, heads, cylinders, etc...
