- Track which this sector resides on.
- 2 bytes (20 bits) indicating the diskette I.D. (the I.D.

by
the user when the diskette
is
formatted).

This gap
is
variable depending on the

the disk during format. OAP 2 will be constant for all
sectors except for the tail gap (the gap between first and the
last sectors).
