  I have a Seagate ST 251 in my (HP QS/16 (386 class)) PC. The sticker
on the drive and the SETUP program lists it as "Type 44". The "SETUP
Program Guide" of my computer gives the following specifications for
"Type 44" :

Cylinders		 820
Heads			   6
Start Precomp. 		none
Landing Zone		 820
Approx. Capacity	40MB

  I hope this helps.
