In order to balance some of the deservedly bad publicity Apple has been getting
over Quantum hard drives, I'd like to give Quantum a plug.  Quantum drives,
purchased from vendors other than Apple, are fantastic.  They are very fast,
very dependable, and very competitively priced.

I've used an internal, rear-mount Quantum 40 for over a year in a Mac SE. It
cost half as much as an Apple internal 20, didn't require removing the upper
floppy drive, and will be under warranty for another year.  I've not used a
faster drive under 100 mb.  In my opinion, these drives are among the very best
choices for the Mac user.

Of course, I've no affiliation with Quantum.  I'm just a satisfied customer.
