Once again, I might get flamed for this, but avoid Seagates at
all cost! Companies that sell drives with Seagate mechanisms
include CMS, Ehman and Everex, among others.
Quantum drives are a little more expensive, about $600 for
40 megs, but they come with - get this - a FIVE YEAR
warranty. Make sure that the drive you're getting was made
within the last month, though, because there was a design
flaw in earlier versions that caused all the trouble you
might have read about here.
