Hello to all.
I Really enjoy the list and have gained lots of knowledge from it, Thank
you.
I have a question on hard drive sizing. I have always figured the size by
taking "cylinders x heads x sectors x 512 = drive size". This has always
worked out in the past but now I noticed that on drives 8x gigs and up that
the heads, sectors and cylinders are the same how does this work out? thanks
in advance for the information.


Rick
