How helpful ;P
I'll have a close look at the disk drive tonight and see if I can look it
up and find something out about it.
Only some?
I am unsure of the model, to be honest. The front case simply says
"Vector". The sticker on the back says the model number is 9002-something,
if memory serves.
Yes, the Vector 4 for instance, was made with with both hard and
soft-sectored drives. And if you've got the S-100 "box" version of the
Vector 1, it could use any third-party S-100 diskette controller, so the
question of "what format" may be a bit harder to determine. Here are some photos of various Vector models:

I have the external chassis Vector, like an MZ (or System B), but the MZs
and Bs I have seen all seem to have "MZ" and "B" screen printed onto
the
front case along with the "VECTOR" name, which mine does not, as below.

I appreciate your help in continuing to identify what specific Vector I
have.
