#Hard Drive Help
Hello, all you heavy duty hard disk hackers!
I gotta good one for you.
I bought a surplus CDC hard drive for a lot of money, but I got no docs with
it. If you have a cdc manual handy could you tell me:
a. Size of drive in hds/cyl/sec and/or total sectors
b. how to set the scsi address
c. what the jumpers do
d. when it was made
e. how to get a tech-ref manual
f. how to set the sector size
Here is what I know:
Model: 94171-300(300 meg?)
Part No: 77777000
Serial No. 03007797(the 7797th 300 meg they made?)
Lot No. 0-8751 (51st day of 87?)
The box had a manual #77738214 on it but I'm not sure it was the
original box.
Thanks in advance,

Note: the BBS runs on a pc clone until I get this drive up, when I
will switch to amiga for amiga, the way it should be.
