Defining Disk Image Dump Standard

I just considered another bit of data that might be useful to store in the Archive Header. If one were to have to read the raw bytes off of a track due to some non-standard format, it would be helpful to know at what rate the disk drive that read the disk was spinning so that if and when that archive was used to re-create the original disk, the writing drive could be adjusted to match the speed at which it was read. This is pretty imperative. A quick test can be done before the disk is read to determine the RPM. Of course, having an optimally tuned drive would be recommended if one is to be serious about creating software archives for posterity.
