- GENERAL
- INFORMATION: Just so it is clear, the purpose of translation mode is
- to allow the Western Digital controller to conform to the
- systems that have a 1024 cylinder limitation. This
- limitiation is imposed by the way the PC BIOS reads in
- the partition information from the master boot record on
- the drive.
