Subject: Re: Hard-sector discs -- how many sectors?

In the 5.25" size, I know that there was both 10-sector and 16-sector media.
Heathkit/Zenith and NorthStar both used the 10-sector media.
Hi
Polymorphic used the 10 sectored 5.25 disk and the 16 sectored
8 inch disk.
My Nicolet uses 32 sectored 8 inch disk but creates only
2 actual sectors of 16 holes each.
I would suspect that you want to have a way to select
any number of sectors index holes.
