In the 90s there used to be a web page for linux describing all the possible physical formats and one interesting side effect was changes in average kilobytes/sec transfer rate. Obviously more tracks simply took longer to read more data in a linear fashion but there were weird interactions where long sectors increased average bandwidth, mostly. I'm old enough to manually set interleave parameters on hard disks in the early 80s, so that was interesting. I don't remember interleave optimizing on floppies but I may just forget.
