Ditto on the Quantum Lightning.  Like the Fireball, it's undercached and
seems like a particularly shaky model.  I bought two 730S drives about 2
months apart at the first of 1995 and had both of them go out (after the
year of warranty time) in April and June of this year.  Big thumbs down.

I've taken a liking to Conner and Micropolis drives.
