I have finally been sold on IBM drives.  I picked up a WD not to long
ago, but when I connected it on the same channel as my IBM the data rate
noticably slowed.  As a test, I hooked up my Maxtor and suffered no
slowdowns.  All drives are 7200RPM, and within 3.5 GBs in size of each
other (IBM-10GB, WD-13GB, Maxtor-13GB).  The IBM appears to be the
fastest overall drive of the three.
