With the Quantum Prodrive 40AT use 965 cylinders, 5 r/w heads, and 17 sectors/T.
This is the logical format.  It physically has 834 cylinders, 3 r/w heads
26 sectors/t.

If your system's drive table does not have the logical format drive type, 
choose a type with the same logical heads and a capacity less than or equal to
40 megs.

Note: low level format is not needed.
