I don't have all the spec's memorized, per se, but I do have one of the
drives in my lap at the moment. It's an 8" 4-head drive with 256 cylinders.
Nominal capacity, FM, raw, is 10+ MB, formats to 8MB under CP/M using 32
256-byte sectors per track. Rotates at 3125 rpm and uses a data rate of
4.34 Mbps. Spindle drive is 110VAC, while the stepper uses 24 volts. The
board uses +5 for logic and optionally via jumper, -12 VDC or -5 VDC. The
power is brought in via connectors and pinout identical to those on 8"
FDD's.

These make a great, and great-looking companion to a pair of HH 8" floppies,
which work from the same supplies.
