It is because at a minimum a record consists of a COUNT and a DATA section. Each one takes a minimum of 10 sectors, so with even a 1 byte record you need 20 sectors. If you had a 1 byte key and 1 byte of data you would need 30 sectors, 10 for each part.

It's a long answer. We tend to think of a record as three unified parts, COUNT, KEY and DATA, but really they are three mini-records (for lack of a better description). Each part needs enough cells for the data, plus 9 cells of CRC and other control information that we can never see. So, for a COUNT field it takes 10 cells; for a KEY field, if present, and a DATA field the calculation is: SECTORS = 9 + (KL + (6 * KN) + 6) / 34) Where KN = (KL + 6) / 232 KL = Key length Change KL to DL and do the same calculation for the data area. Question 3: Are you running under VM and using a mini-disk? VM formats their R0 differently, I believe. Hope this helps.
