It's a large MFM device, makes interesting noises, known good, but
one of the little animals (students) thought it would be k00l-rad to nuke
the CMOS. Anyone got numbers for this thing?

Ahh rubberheads.....here's the poop on the drive but since it's ESDI the CMOS
should just be set to drive type 1, or type 0 if it were a SCSI.
Atasi 638
338mb ESDI, 18ms access, 5.25" FH, 1225 cylinders, 15 heads, 36 sectors per
track, autopark.
Try setting the cmos drive type to 1 for drive 1 and see how that works for
you first. ESDI is supposed to communicate with the controller, much like
SCSI and MCA so it shouldn't need info like MFM and RLL.
