Hmm, somebody named Clemmins said that too..... >Good Luck Syquest has some of the worst reliability problems of any media or drive that I have ever had the misfortune to use. In the course of the last 6 years, I have had a 100% failure rate of all the drive mechanisms, ranging from 44MB drives to the 270. In addition, the media has always been completely unreliable, even moreso that what floppies have become. No Sir. I will never purchase or recomment a Syquest product again. The reason why I have not bought a JAZZ drive is because I have been burned so badly with Syquest and their removable drives that I will never trust anything not a hard drive again. Good luck indeed.
