I have also read many such stories here.  My own experience has been that
Jasmine drives are very reliable, and good value.  I have had a DirectDrive
80 on my Mac Plus for over two years, with not one problem, and no lost or
corrupted files, despite many system crashes during program development.
Of course, this reliability has meant that I have never had to deal with
their service department.

One should also note that whereas people with problems are quick to complain,
those with no problems do not often bother to say so; they are too busy
actually using their systems.  So, the number of stories you hear about
problems with Jasmine drives could just be an indication of the very large
number of drives Jasmine have sold, with no more than the industry average
percentage bad drives.
