Wanted to pass the below info along that I pulled off the net. Thanks to
 Pat Cain (Denver) <pjc@denver.ssds.COM> for telling where to find
the very useful piece of info!

scsiinfo is very usefull also!

# TIPS for rolling your own format.dat
#
# For SCSI disks, any combination of cylinders, heads and sectors that does
# not add up to more than the rated formatted capacity of the drive
# will usually work, because the SCSI specification hides most of the drive
# details from the host.
#
# A program which queries a SCSI drive for its parameters and generates a
# format.dat entry for it is scsiinfo, which is available for anonymous
# ftp from ftp.cdf.toronto.edu (128.100.31.2):/pub/scsiinfo/scsiinfo-3.1.shar.
# [ Yes, it's an attempt to put myself out of the format faq business. :-) ]
# Moreover, SCSI drives may be queried at great length using the scsiping
# program, which is freely available for anonymous ftp from
# ftp.cdf.toronto.edu (128.100.31.2) and ftp.fwi.uva.nl (146.50.4.20) in
# /pub/scsiping/scsiping-2.0.shar.
#
# For SunOS 4.1.3 and 5.x, replace all occurrences of "MD21" by "SCSI".
#
# This is the search path for 'format'. It contains all the disks that
# will be searched for if no disk list is given on the command line.
