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.

ok, yet another Q for those of you out there who
have run across these.
anyone have a suggestion for where i might come across a ~20mb RLL
drive? 3.5" size, don't have the model #'s on me at the moment although
What you're looking for is:
3.5" 20MB Hard Disk Drive (T3100/20)
JVC : JD3824ROTO
Number of heads: 4
Number of cylinders: 612
Average access time: 78ms
Recording method: 2-7 RLL
TEST/TEST3 setup type: 2 Dunno where to find one, though, other than another
T3100/20. (And no, you
can't have mine!)
