Hello, I have a 3.5" x 1" harddrive in my computer, that I believe
is 120MB and I know has a "Quantum Prodrive LPS" sticker on the 
outside.  I am trying to find CMOS values and any other specs that
anyone has available.  I have had the drive formatted at 762 cyl,
8 tracks, and 39 sectors/track, but I have reason to believe that
these are the incorrect numbers.  My CMOS asks for the following
#'s
# of Cylinders  #of heads WPcomm  Lzone  #of Sect

I am also planning on putting in a 386BSD partition, so I need to
know what type of controller is standard with these drives (I am
assuming ESDI), the sector size (assuming 512), and whether the
drive supports bad 144-style bad sector forwarding.  Anyone who
has a drive like this, and has a 386BSD disktab entry for it, please
let me know. 

Also, the technical support number for Quantum would be just as 
appreciated as any of the above information.

Thanks for any help,
