DRIVATTR
Purpose: Sets additional physical parameters of a disk device.
Syntax: DRIVATTR =</D:dd> <[/T][/C][/S:xx]>
Parameters:
/D:dd - defines the device logical number
/T - specifies that the device controller can process input-output
enquiries that require addressing several cylinders. Applicable
only to IDE controllers, as a rule.
WARNING! Not recommended to use when running disk cache programs,
e.g. SMARTDRV.EXE and when loading MS-Windows 3.1 in enhanced
mode.
/C - Disables system interference over diskette access control. With
this key PTS-DOS will not support non-standard diskette formats.
/S:xx - sets the number of rotations per second for a diskette. At boot,
the system sets the following values:
for a 360K drive - 5 r.p.s.
for a 1.2M drive - 6 r.p.s.
for 3,5" drives 720K/1.44M/2.88M - 5 r.p.s.
The parameter is used for calculating GPL - the filling gap
between sectors on a diskette track.
