Hi Kev--I have a wd1002-shd controller--the dmode readings are now cyls=640,
 hds=4 step=4 sectrk=32 sectrk0=32 alloc=1 ilv=5 initcmd=0c inittbl=028004028
002800b000000000000000000000000. The drive is actually rated at 22meg. After
using the info you sent, I set it up as shown and I was able to format for the
first time. It then did a physical verify and came back with the statement that
the number of good sectors was $0040000. I then tried a dir and got a 214.
