2.1.1.1 For Each Notch

The next group of equations must be calculated separately for each notch.

user bytes/sector (ub/ sct) = ub/lba

sct/lba

user sectors/cyl (us/cyl) = (sct/trk)(trk/cyl) - spr/cyl

spares/notch (spr/nch) = (spr/cyl)(ucyl)

Note: Add lcspr to the equation above for the notch closest to the inner diameter (#10).

user sectors/notch (us/nch) = (us/cyl)(ucyl)

Note: Subtract lcspr from the equation above for the notch closest to the inner diameter (#10).
