Just curious as to what the expert opinion is on this - I've got a
ST412-type drive here (it's a Miniscribe with 615/4/17 ~20MB geometry)
which refuses to read from cylinders 128-255 or cylinders 384-511 -
giving address mark not found errors - although cylinders outside those
two ranges are fine.
ST506/412 controllers typically don't have a lot of smarts. Have you
tried low-level formatting the drive?
