Using HDD from AS on Unix

Hi Guys

Is this possible to use 17 GB SCSI disk running earlier on AS400 on Unix machine (also IMB x server)?

When We try to do it get message:

sd2 at scsibus1 target 2 lun 0: <IBMAS400, DRVS18D, 1606> disk fixed
sd2(ahd1:0:2:0): preposterous sector size: 0x20a. Defaulting to 512 bytes.
