Media byte 0xf8 (hard disk)
512 bytes per logical sector
16384 bytes per cluster
32 reserved sectors
First FAT starts at byte 16384 (sector 32)
2 FATs, 32 bit entries

Root directory start at cluster 2 (arbitrary size)
Data area starts at byte 12869632 (sector 25136)

File size is 0 bytes, cluster chain length is > 0 bytes.
