All right, but this Mac OS-compatible doesn't have 512-byte sectors, so
says Drive Setup on the Mac OS 8 CD, so therefore I can't modify it. Is
there any kind of workaround, say an extension or maybe a jumper on the
drive (4.3 GB SCSI-2, ASP 2.1.2 reports it as a IBM DGHS04Z)?

Yes, typically this is a jumper setting. Look on the drive itself for the model number (or use SCSI Probe which will return the model number reported by the firmware on the drive) , then at Hitachi's HDD web support pages; Hitachi bought IBM's drive business some years back, and has that info.
