It is no problem to work with 1024Byte sectors. My standard Disk format
is

80 Cylinders 2 Heads 5*1024 bytes/Track yielding 800K/Disk.

All formats that go beyond that I should call them unsafe.

I use an interleave of 1:3 for MINIX file systems, so it is VERY good
that the sector size equals the block size!
