Quickview 40 20/30/40GB AT

4.3.5

Alternate Capacity (AC)

For user capacities below 66,055,248 sectors (32GB), inserting the AC

jumper limits the Number of Cylinders field 1 to a value of 16,383, as

reported in IDENTIFY DEVICE data word. This allows software drivers

to determine that the actual capacity is larger than indicated by the

maximum CHS, requiring LBA addressing to use the full capacity.

A summary of these effects for the Maxtor Quickview 40 drives is

shown in the following table:
