7DRIVE PARAMETERS

Most IDE device drivers can automatically detect the total number of sectors in the IDE Plus, using the IDENTIFY DRIVE command, and configure them accordingly. However, some older device drivers need to obtain the drive geometry parameters manually. The physical drive parameters are just a convention and have no effect on the way data is stored within the

IDE Plus.
