When I posted my original note asking for hard drive recommendations,
I got a reply from a fellow who works for Micah drives, recommending his
product.  It sounds like a great deal - for $649 you get a 20 meg
drive with auto-park on powerdown, and 10 meg of PD software, not to
mention a 2 YEAR warranty.  Sounds great, but I've never heard anything,
good or bad, about Micah drives.
	If any of you out there who aren't affiliated with Micah have 
experience with these drives, I'd appreciate hearing about it.  I just
can't bring myself to buy a product I know nothing about.  The warranty
is great, but having a product in the shop for two years, even if it's
for free, is no great deal (and this has happened to me before with
bargain deals, so I'm especially wary.)

Thanks in advance.

PS - thanks to all who sent me replies to my first request.
