Hi Net!

I just picked up a hard drive and I need some info since I have no
documentation on it at all.  Here is what I do know...

Maker:		MAXTOR
Model:  	XT-1085
Capacity:	85 Meg
Number Heads:	6 (I think)
Number Tracks:	956+ (Highest track number on bad block list)
To: 
TLA:		1091205 A
HDA:		1050490
PCBA:		1059055 H18

What I need to know is:

Max Track Number:
Number of Heads:
Number of Blocks:
Size of Blocks:
Avg Access time:

Anything else I missed.  The first two numbers are the really needed
ones, the rest I can figure out or aren't really important.  I haven't
tried calling MAXTOR themselves, since this drive is probably about 5
years old, but a free drive is nothing ot snear at...

Thanks for your help!  Please email to me, don't reply to the lists!
