It might.  Not sure under NetBSD tho...

I recently put a pair of these in the 266 Mhz AXPs at work.  I had far less
info than the spec sheet you included.  I guestimated how many blocks
were on the disk (guess high), and disklabel(8) complained loudly that 
I was X block beyond the end of media :-)  After I established
the total block count, I figured the average SPT and used that.  I think
mine was closer to 117 or so.  YMMV...

All this was under OSF 3.2C; I'd more more than happy to mail you
/etc/disktab entry for the Hawk if you're interested...
