>How many bytes in a cylinder is dependent on the geometry of the device.
For the common 3390-3, you are >looking at 15 tracks of 56,664 bytes,
maximum, for a total of 849,960 bytes per cylinder.

>formated for 4K page sizes, your usable space is 744,480 bytes/cylinder

When I do the math  180 pages * 4k (4096)  I get 737,280  usable bytes per
cyl.
