According to my drive table documentation which I downloaded from a local
BBS, the Tandon Model TM703 (no AT listed), is a 10meg, 733 cyl, 5 head
drive, 17 sectors per track, RWC 734, WPC 734, MFM format.  It appears that
there must be an error in the capacity figure because 733 cyl, 5 heads,
17 sectors per track certainly adds up to more than 10meg!
