Bill, try the Seagate ST-251 (either the standard one with 40ms or the one
with the "-1" extension with 28ms access time). It's used in the IBM machines
alot and I know they are ST-506 (I have one and it works real nice). The
regular 40ms version can be had for as low as $319 and the 28ms version for
about $420 (These are the lowest prices I've seen in the San Diego area).
