Summary: Thanks for the info but why are there different answers?

Thank you for your responses.  Here are the answers I got:

Total Cylinders:	809
Total Heads:		6
Write Precomp Cyl:	128 or 300
Reduced Write Start Cyl:810 or 852
Max Correctable Burst:	11
CCB Option byte:	7 or 5

I used the first set of numbers.  I'm not sure why I get different numbers
from different people.  Are the differences great enough that I should
reformat again?
