2314, 2419, 2311, these are just a few of the "IBM" DASD that
I've had the pleasure of working with. I've forgotten the drum
device numbers and the noodle snatcher model number.

OK, the sleeping dog wants some attention. Before my first reply, I carefully
Googled device type 2314 to verify the number. Then I typed '3314' because who
has ever worked with DASD that started with something other than '33'? 2314
remained valid in the IODEVICE macro long, long after the final one disappeared
into the sunset. And as I said, I was advised to use it for VIO because of
'device architecture', whatever that meant. Track size, I guess, from what
others have posted.

That's a device type I've never heard of, and the Google knows not of. Could this be a
typo for "2314"?
I believe the OP meant 2314 which had 7294 bytes per track. It was a removable
disk.
