| Which hard drive would you recommend:
|    1) Control Data Wren Model 3  Full height drive  150Meg
|    2) Miniscribe 3180E  Half height drive  150Meg

  I would go with the full height drive. It may tend to run cooler, and
I believe MiniScribe is in financial trouble. I don't know if the Wren
III is part of the product line Seagate bought from CDC, but in any case
the company is stable.

  Of course both are good drives, and if you can get one a lot cheaper
you might let your wallet decide.
