Just before Christmas I received a flyer from a mail order place called
"Computer Direct".  They have a "Ready to Plug into the Macintosh" 20 MB
SCSI hard disk for $499.95+$14.50 shipping.  from the picture in the catalog
you might conclude that the drive is manufactured by a company called "CMS"

First of all, is this a good price for a 20 Meg SCSI drive nowadays?  Has
anyone seen a comparable or better price elsewhere?

Second, is CMS a drive manufacturer?  If so are they any good?

Third, has anyone bought, seen, used this particular drive?  Opinions on
quality, etc?  Has anyone dealt with COMPUTER DIRECT?  Good/bad experiences?

Please respond by email.  I'll summarize to the net if I get enough reponses.

Thanks in advance.
