Hmmm, I used (about 5 years ago) a Pinnacle Apex with 1024 byte
sectors on
(gasp) MS-DOS with no problem. Just takes the right device driver.
Yes, but that's yet another MS OS. :-( I would prefer
support on one of the *BSD but I don't think it's there, yet (?).
Or, barring that, Solaris.

Then you probably will not want to use W98SE. I used a
1024 byte sector sized media few times with a Sony SMO S-501
drive just to see if it would work. As far as I know, the
APSI driver handled it without any difficulty. However,
since I was using it under the Ersatz-11 emulator at the
time running RT-11, I did not provide a real test for
actual W98SE use.
