Subject: Western Digital Controller Translation Mode
Date: September 10, 1990

GENERAL
INFORMATION: Just so it is clear, the purpose of translation mode is
to allow the Western Digital controller to conform to the
systems that have a 1024 cylinder limitation. This
limitiation is imposed by the way the PC BIOS reads in
the partition information from the master boot record on
the drive.
