- A friend is about to connect a Seagate Wren VII (ST41200N) to his system
- (running SUNOS 4.1.1), and we are wondering what parameters are best to
- use when formatting the drive. The data sheet for the drive mentions that
- the drive has an unformatted capacity of 1.2GB, a block size of 512 bytes,
- 1931 cylinders, and 15 heads.
-
-
- So what opinions do you, the people of the NET, have?
-
- A format.dat entry would be fine.
-
- Many thanks,
-
