Yeah, on a DS8100 they are a "3390 Custom"...which can be defined as any number of cylinders (or mod1 allocation) you like.

We're all confused! *My* mod 27's are 32,760 cylinders. Course we all know there is no such thing as a mod 27 and they are really 3390-9 of a larger size, which can be any size. All made up :) Marcy "This message may contain confidential and/or privileged information.

A 3390-3 at 3339 cylinders, one for CP and an almost full pack mini disk is 3338 cylinders. So 3390-27 is 30051 cylinders. If you give the guest a pseudo full pack, that's minus one for CP, so 30050 Rob _____________________________________________________ This message contains information which is privileged and confidential and is solely for the use of the intended recipient.
