I just received a spec sheet on the NEC 23XX series, here's the geometries:

	Model:		2332	2352	2352H	2362	2363	2373
cylinders		 823	 760	 760	 850	1024	1024
read/write heads	 20	 19	 19	 23	 27	 27
bytes per track 	20480	36288	36288	40960	40960	51200
transfer rate (MB/s)	1.21	1.86	2.18	2.46	2.46	3.07

The NEC regional office said that the 2363 was only being sold via OEM's
at the moment (e.g. Sun), and that distributors (Hamilton-Avnet, Hallmark,
and Arrow-Kierulff) won't be getting them for a couple of months.
NEC's main telephone number is +1 617 264 8000.
