PC Drive Types.

  If you are using third-party installation software or an board
  BIOS on the controller, follow the instructions included with
  the software or controller. Otherwise, examine the entries in 
  your drive table and find the type that most resembles the head
  and cylinder parameters of the drive without exceeding these
  parameters.

RN1 Interface Terminator
  The Interface Terminator factory installed at RN1 will provide
  proper termination for the interface lines. When daisy-chaining
  multiple drives, leave the terminator installed  only in the last
  physical drive on the daisy chain; remove the terminator from
  each of the other drives. In most PC/AT installations, the C:
  drive is  actually at the end of the cable and should retain the
  terminator.

DA1, DA2, DA3 Drive Address Jumpers
  The drive address jumpers are identified as DA1, DA2 and DA3.
  Address selection is binary, as shown in the table below. The
  ESDI controllers's documentation will specify the drive address
  to use.

   Drive            Select Jumpers
  Address        DA3     DA2     DA1
  -------        ---     ---     ---
     1           out     out      in
     2           out      in     out
     3           out      in      in

     7            in      in      in

  "Drive address 0" (no jumper at DA1, DA2, or DA3) is a "deselect"
  (i.e., no drive selected). Drives are factory configured as Drive
  Address 1. For many multiple drive installations, each drive must
  have a unique address. An exception is that for every drive in
  a PC/AT installation, verify that only Drive Address is at DA2;
  move  the jumper if necessary(the special twisted interface cable 
  that is generally used takes care  of assigning a unique address
  to each drive). PC/AT controller can typically support a maximum
  of two drives.

W5 Selects the Spindle Control Option.
  W5 selects the spindle a control option. If W5 is installed, the
  drive waits for a Start Spindle command (after power is  applied)
  to start the spindle motor. If W5 is not installed (the factory
  default configuration), the drive automatically starts the spindle
  motor at power-on. W5 is not installed for PC/AT applications.

W1 Selects the Sectoring Mode.
  If W1 is installed, the drive operates in the soft-sectored mode.
  If W1 is not installed (the factory default configuration), the
  drive operates in the hard-sector mode. W1 is not installed for 
  most PC/AT in applications.

W2, W3, W4 Sector Size Option
  The number of bytes per sector may be specified using the Set
  Bytes Per Sector command or by selecting a default sector 
  configuration with jumpers W2, W3, and W4 as follows:

       Jumpers            Sectors            Bytes/Sector
    W4    W3    W2       Per Track       Formatted  Unformatted
