Well, the ST-138N first;
There are two versions of this: ST 138 N-0 & ST 138 N-1. They are SCSI and 32
formatted capacity 3 1/2" HDs with 615 cylinders, 4 heads and 26 sct. The
0-Modell has 40ms. The 1-Modell is half height and has 28 ms (somehow faster,
isn`t it 8)

The ST-157N-1 is also a 3 1/2" SCSI half height HD with 615 cylinders,
6 heads and 26 sct (28 ms).

The Quatum 40 Meg SCSI Pro Drives are 19 ms Hds (please correct me if I`m wrong.
I have no exact specs here.) There should be the fastest hds for the amiga.
There are surely not the noisiest ones.

Well, prices round about (in german marks):

ST 138 N-0: DM 550.-
ST 138 N-1: DM 600.-
ST 157 N-1: DM 690.-

Sorry no price for the quantum...

so long

Martin
