This is the summary of answers to my query on WDXT-GEN controller
with ST-251 hard disk.

When dynamically configure the hard disk during low-level formating,
use the parameters as follow:

	820 6 819 819 11 5

The suitable interleave value is from 4 to 6 (4:1 to 6:1). This value
varys from system to system. One way to determine the best value is
to run programs like SPINTEST.

Thanks to everyone sent e-mail to me. They are really helpful.
I've got my hard disk formatted. Thanks again.
