If you know I would also like the CMOS drive type number for a Maxtor 4380 (ESDI). The CMOS disk drive descriptions seem to be more accurate for MFM drives and less accurate for ESDI drives. Anyway the physical descriptions are as follows: Micropolis Maxtor 1355 4380 ---------- --------- Cylinders 1024 1219 Heads 8 15 Sectors/track 36 33 Anybody? +----------------------------------------------------------+ | Steven Jukoff DDN: jukoff@net.com | | Phone: 415-780-5819 uucp: ames!unet!jukoff | +----------------------------------------------------------+
