Klappal) Organization: chi-net, Public Access UN*X, Chicago IL Lines: 19 Keywords: variable spped drives Summary: [] I believe the Victor 9000 had (has?) a variable speed drive that put more sectors (or maybe more bytes/sector) on the outer tracks. If anyone from FORD is on the net, thay might confirm, since they started to standardize on the Victor before their (Victor's) finacial problems.
