        The capacity of the Notetaker floppy disk has been advertised as 340,000 bytes. That quantity
        assumed double-density, dual sided-disks, and a particular format. rn1is memo summarizes some
        possibilities for formatting single-sided disks.

    Standard IBM -style fonnats have an overhead in address marks and synch marks equivalent to 60
    or more bytes per track plus 50 or more bytes per sector. rIlle WD 1791 can handle non-standard
    formats, but below certain unknown minimum values for the synch mark overhead, reliability will
    be sacrificed.

    Nominal disk capacity (according to Shugart literature):

                  Single density: 110K
                  Double density: 220K

        File Format (128 byte sectors, IBM style):

                  Single density: 35 tracks * 16 sectors * 128 bytes = 71,680
                       [35*(60+-16*(60+ 128
