Close, but...

This list is mostly taken from the CHARON mkdisk utility:
RZ22    50,0 MB
RZ23   100,0 MB
RZ23L  116,1 MB
RZ24   200,1 MB
RZ24E  200,0 MB
RZ24L  234,4 MB
RZ25   406,5 MB
RZ26  1001,4 MB
RZ26F 1001,5 MB
RZ26L 1001,5 MB
RZ27     1,5 GB
RZ28     2,1 GB
RZ29     4,3 GB
RZ29B    4,3 GB
RZ40     9,1 GB
disclaimer: "GB" or "MB" may not always mean the same number of bytes 
for different disks (1000 vs. 1024) - did not check that.
