I never managed to fill up a 128MB OS-9 drive :) and my RGB-DOS/HDB-DOS tricks I used to get 416 RS-DOS drives were also mostly empty.
I do think, for OS-9, using the LBA mode of CoCoSDC makes sense. I need to find some documentation on that.

Indeed! You are even credited in my OS-9 Space Invaders game :)
