I have a 65Mbyte ST-277N drive in the guise of an Apple Crate. Except
at boot time it's been reliable for the 1.5 years I've had it. It
suffers from the common won't-spin-up-when-cold syndrome. But then, so
does the 40Mb Quantum drive in the Mac II I use. Whoever boxed it
offered a nice long two year warranty, so one of these days I may
complain. If I were doing it over I would still get the Seagate drive,
but I would have waited a couple months for the parts to become
available so I could box it myself and save a couple hundred $.
