  To anyone who can help, I am looking into buying a 105 megabyte Quantum 3.5"
hard drive, SCSI.  I have a 2090 (not "a") controller and am not sure how the
controller, or system, will react to the drive.  Will I be able to tell the
prep how many surfaces, sides, etc. and have it do the rest?  If anyone has
any info on the sides, surfaces, blocks per track, etc then can you please
print them?  Any help at all would be appreciated, even stuff saying you have
or had one and it was great, or it had problems.  Thanks for any help.
