HD spins at constant speed, and all modern HDs are zoned so they
have more sectors on the edge than in the middle. Now you have to work
out whether they start at the middle or the edge - the middle I think but
don't quote me. If that's right you'll get faster performance on the
higher numbered sectors, which I suppose means they are the ones you'll
want to use for audio.
