We just recently got a computer in here which was purportedly
configured with the factory with some sort of a 40 meg drive.  The
drive inside the computer is labeled as a WD93044-A drive (Western
Digital) with 782 cylinders and 4 heads.  Now: is this really a 40 meg
drive, and what does one have to do to get an Award BIOS to recognize
it?
