A friend gave me a drive and I can't quite figure out the drive type.
He said it was a 30Meg drive, but the best I can get it to work at is 20Meg.
I don't have any documentation for it, so that's why I'm asking...

It's a full height drive
All thats written on the drive is:

Magnetic Perpherials Inc,
Control Data
MN: BJ7D5-A
PN: 77731604
LOT: 0-8446

Currently I am using it as a type 2 (615 Cylinders, 4 heads, 17 sectors, 20Meg)
and it works OK.

If anyone knows the type or a good way to figure it out I would appreciate 
some E-mail (I won't be able to read here for the next few weeks).

Thanks in advance...
