Well, since my Jasmine Direct Drive 80 has worked flawlessly since I
received it in March, I would say the above statement is absolutely untrue.
They can deliver more. Perhaps they did not in your case.

I have never known them to refuse assistance of any kind. My drive was a few
days late. They were most apologetic. They even called me once to let me know
it would be delayed. I have called them for technical advice, and they have
always tried to help, tho once they could not answer the question. A friend
got a 20mb with SCSI adapter, and when the unit failed to boot up, they
spent a considerable amount of time on the phone (everyone in a positive
mood) helping to get the thing working.
They offer a 30 day money back offer, plus a one year warranty. If they really
just plain refuse to fix it, you may have grounds for legal action.

Perhaps you could fill the net in on the nature of your problem and diagnostic
approach to it. It is possible someone here might have some useful insights
They perhaps seem lax in their business attitude. They are a small, low-budget
operation. If I were you I would continue to seek satisfaction. I just can't
believe they would leave you high and dry.
If your pissed off at them, that's one thing. But the statement you made
above can be proved wrong. This is a public forum, and you may get yourself
in trouble.

I have absolutely no connection with Jasmine other than as a reasonably
satisfied customer.
