Hard Disk Info Needed
3 messages in this thread
Hi all,
I have just found a 3 1/2 inch Fuji Electric Hard-Disk inside an old XT
that was given to me for parts. It was connected to a Western Digital
controller, so I assume it is an MFM disk. I need to know the tech data on
it though, as I may be able to connect it to my Amiga 1000 by way of the
"Wedge". Remember that? 🙂 Anyway, the only markings re model number are
FK309-26. Can anyone give me the info I need? i.e. Number of heads, tracks
per sector, number of sectors, etc.? Any help is appreciated.

If a train station is where a train stops, what is a workstation?
David,
I've not looked at the file for a long time, but we have a file in Library
9 of AmigaUser that might help:
DRIVES.ARC 9 5K 02-06-89 No. of hds, cyls, etc. for 153 hard disks!!

cylinders MFM drive. 50 to 80 ms average access time. Write
Precompensentation is cylinder 616….in other words, you don't need to
worry about it.
