Here is a format.dat entry for the Maxtor LXT-200S which I put together
when we were evaluating drives for the Sparcstations.  The entry works,
but we didn't buy the drives.  The Maxtor uses up a *lot* of power and
gets a lot hotter than the other drives we've evaluated.  Note also that
on the Sun you only get about 160MB out of the drive rather than 200...
