Hi,
I have two new IBM drives. they are supposed to be 18.2 Gb but they are only
reported as 17.5Gb by linux and the scsi bios.
is this normal or can I change a setting or two to get the full capacity.
fdisk shows:
255 heads 63 sectors 2231 cylindars
the drives are:
IBM Ultrastar 18ES
U2W SCSI
DNES-318350
thanks
Gavin
