Note
(1):
Logical Layout
Logical layout is an imaginary HDD parameter (that is the number of Heads) which is used to access the
HDD from the system interface. The Logical layout to Physical layout (that is the actual number of Head
and Sectors) translation is done automatically in the HDD. The default setting can be obtained by issuing
an IDENTIFY DEVICE command.
Note
(2):
Number of Cylinders
For drives with capacities greater than 8.45 GB the identify device information word 01 limits the number
of cylinders to 16,383 per the ATA specification.
