Here is a format.dat entry for the Maxtor LXT-200S which I put together
when we were evaluating drives for the Sparcstations.  The entry works,
but we didn't buy the drives.  The Maxtor uses up a *lot* of power and
gets a lot hotter than the other drives we've evaluated.  Note also that
on the Sun you only get about 160MB out of the drive rather than 200...

disk_type = "Maxtor LXT-200S" \
        : ctlr = MD21 : fmt_time = 2 \
        : cache = 0x5c : trks_zone = 6 : atrks = 0 : asect = 1 \
        : ncyl = 1314 : acyl = 2 : pcyl = 1320 : nhead = 7 : nsect = 33 \
        : rpm = 3662 : bpt = 16896
