Hi.  Looking through the February issue of _Computer Shopper_,
I've seen a few places advertise a Seagate drive model ST4144R.
It's a full height, 122 meg RLL drive, for around $600.  I've
never heard of this drive before.  Anyone know if this is a new
product from Seagate?  Anyone care to share his/her experiences
with this drive?

I'm building my own 386 box right now, and am currently looking
for a large hard drive.  I was considering the ST296N with the
ST02 combination, but many people on the net seem to have
problems with that setup.  Is the 4144 more reliable?  It takes
up a full height slot, but otherwise, works out to be about the
same dollar per meg as the 296N (with controller).  How do their 
speed compare?  I will be doing mostly program development, and
some multitasking (no multiuser).  Anyone got a recommendation?

You can reply either by post or email.  If there is enough
interest, I'll post a summary.
