I think that disappeared when cray-ymp left.

Sector size: 512
Sectors/Trk: 40
Tracks/Cyl: 512
Number Cyl: 2046

Anybody have the information for SyQuest (44 & 88) drives?  I believe
those two were working... way back....  Anything else unusual like that
would be nice, as well.  I'm trying to put it all in a single location.

(Is the ZIP drive stuff in the FAQ?  Just curious.)
