That's not the drive.  That's the controller.

I've got a .com program that does low-level formats without bios floating
around somewhere, or else, there's probBbly one somewhere on the net.

Good Luck.

P.S. You might try looking at the U (unnassembly) info under debug for C800:5
or CA00, CD00, D000, and execute anything that looks like a program.  I've seen
a card with D000 rather than C800 once.
