/* ---------- "low-price hard disk question" ---------- */
From what I've seen in the last few issues of _MacWorld_ and
_MacUser_, the proton 20 from warp nine engineering is now the
cheapest hard disk, at $569 (Jasmine went up to $649 last
month). Does anyone out have any experience with this machine
or this company? Anyone have any disk access times on this
machine? Finally, does anyone know of any other hard disks
which are this cheap which may be a good buy? I have _extremely_
low cash flow now and can't afford a Data Frame, Peak, or any
of the other well-known and highly recommended disk drives.
cheers, from
