The Atlas II isn't. While Quantum does have it on their WWW site, the 
drive isn't released yet. I talked to them Friday, and they said not 
until about the end of Feb or sometime in March, and then it would be 
another month before you would be able to find one, as they ship to 
system manufacturers first, for inclusion in new systems, rather than to 
dealers where an end user would be able to buy the drive. Same with the 
Seagate 4LP series. They are on their WWW site as though it was a 
shipping drive, but if you call them, they will say they won't be 
shipping until late spring/summer.
