think they went belly up.  The reason I know this, is we had an older
Tower-XP in our office with 2 Atasi 46MB disks.  They both went out
the same day, and our Field Engineer replaced them with Hitachi disks.

In my own humble opinion, Atasi disks rank right up there with the CMI
hard disks IBM put in the first PC-ATs.  They had an unbelivable failure
rate.

I remember an ad that another hard disk manufacturer had.  It showed
2 guys on a boat dumping CMI disks in the water off of Boca Raton.  The
caption read:  "Boca Raton needs a new reef".

The ad went on to say that if you sent them your CMI disks and some bucks,
they would ship you their brand of disk, and use the junk CMI disks
to build a reef off of Boca Raton.
