I'm not certain--I do know that the entire drive is physically
accessible using a garden-variety WD AT-style controller, but that
BIOS support for the extra 200 cylinders was lacking in most
adapters. If we get sufficiently desperate, I can haul one out and
do a look-see. It should still have whatever data I last left there
20 or so years ago.
