Does any one know what the hard drive type a Seagate ST-238R is? I
can't get it to work on a Leading Edge Model D2 computer. I know it is
a 32mb drive with 615 cylinders, 4 heads, Read/Write PreComp at 616
and 26 sectors. I tried drive types 36, 37, 38, 43 without success. I
get a "Hard Disk Controller Failure" during boot. (it *was* working
before the clock died). I got the clock working okay now, but the hard
disk is dead. Does anyone know what is going on? Thanks for any
information.
