There are certainly Alpha systems around with a 2.88 drive, but since
we cannot handle them specially at all (all my attempts to get my
couple of 2.88 drives running failed), that doesn't matter much.

The case of no drive attached will hopefully be recognized by the
driver (by a failing seek test).
