It was near the end of Pertec's life making disk

manual, but it would be with a box of other SMD drive
manuals I haven't seen in over 15 years. There are a bunch of other mid 80's
drive manuals that are hard to find, that was why I
started trying to save them when I saw them. Looking back, I should have
grabbed more of the Priam and DTC docs as they were dumped
into the surplus channels back in the day as well.
The reason why I am looking for the manuals or jumper settings is that I
need to jumper the drive to hard sectored mode with 22 sectors/track, and
I currently get hundreds of sectors per track at the moment, so that's
wrong. Next, I have a second drive that is faulty. A service manual (I
really like those from Fujitsu) would be very handy... if it existed.
