[Talks about newer version of card having jumpers]

If the newer version of the IBM hard disk card (which isn't in our copy
of the Options Tech Ref Manual) can support 20MB drives, don't bother
trying all 16 positions and running the low-level format, use my DISKREAD
program, which tells you the number of size of the drive that the hard
card thinks is attached.  You can set the switches, reboot the system
and re-run my program to see if you have hit the right combination.

An easier way may be to call your local IBM dealer's service department
and ask them if they have the BIOS listings for this newer card and
from there you can find the information on what to set the jumpers to.
