I am going to stop pretending I remember what LBA implies. Could you refresh me/us? I do not know if I am familiar with CHS at all.
My personal CoCo hard drives have been: Burke & Burke MFM/RLL (OS-9), KenTon SCSI (RGB-DOS), and SuperIDE (OS-9/HDB-DOS). I expect I have forgotten everything I am going to need to know to get the CoCoSDC acting like an OS-9 hard drive...
