Also known as:

  • LaPine 20 (Titan)
  • LaPine LT200 (Titan)

Description:

The Kyocera KC20A was a rebrand of a stepper-driven 20MB LaPine Titan drive. However, it is unknown whether it is a rebrand of the LaPine Titan LT200 or Titan 20, both of which are identical except for minor differences in the number of cylinders.

CHS params: 615/4/17; Precompensation 128; no landing zone. Alternate CHS parameters: 612/4/17

This drive, like the LaPine Titan series it is based on, has a very unique head-lifter mechanism that creates a very unique sound on spin-up and spin-down.
