A Micropolis 13x4 drive has 1024 cylinders and 6 heads (usually 17 sec/trk). If, however, you have a Micropolis 13x4A, it has 1024 cylinders and 7 heads. I hope this bit of information helps. __________ ___ / \ / / /-/ / /\/ _/ / / / __/. /__ / / / / / / / / "Happy Computing ..." / / ARPAnet: Johnny.J.Chin@andrew.cmu.edu / ------- / 4730 Centre Ave. #412 BITnet: jc58@andrew \__________/ Pittsburgh, PA 15213 UUCP: ...!uunet!andrew.cmu.edu!jc58 Computer Dr. ______________________________________________________________________________ Disclaimer: The views expressed herein are STRICTLY my own, and not CMU's.
