eek. I imagine TurboROM is one of those parts you can't get for love nor

Oh, you can use just about any ST-506/MFM drive with the standard ROM.
But you can only use up to 4 heads and 306 cylinders, all other
capacity remains unaccessable.

Speaking
of classics, I'm hopefully going to get my hands on a Kaypro 10 in
the near future. No idea if the hard disk is alive. Does anyone know if the
disk in that machine is a full height mfm? I just happen to have a 40 meg
replacement for it... :)
Could be either, but if original, it will have 4 heads and 306
cylinders! That is all the standard K-10 EPROM can handle. If you want
to use your ST-151 (or whatever) you will need to install the TurboROM or
one of the other third party EPROMs that give much greater flexibility!
