I will be purchasing a disk drive in the near future and was wondering if
anybody had any thoughts on the type, speed etc. (ESDI vs. SCSI).
I was looking in the 200MB range. My present system config is 386SX-16,
40MB ESDI drive. I may in the near future be upgrading to a faster system,
eg. 20-33MHZ or better and would like to use the disks, so this may be a
factor in selecting the disk ie. speed etc. Also cost may be a factor.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,



Pat P.
