Roger, those numbers don't sound right. At the very least, that should
be a 30mb drive. But with the number of sectors that they are packing
onto a disk these days, it would doubtless be much higher.
There is a JVC JD3824TA listed with 2 heads and 436 cylinders and 48
sectors per track that is 21mb capacity.
