THIS MAY BE A REPOST - IF SO, SORRY - IT DIDN'T SEEM
TO GET TO THE 2ND NEWSGROUP THE 1ST TIME I POSTED

In view of the quantum problems, is there any clear
choice for the "best" 40 meg drive?

I've read in news that quantum's problems may extend
to its entire ProDrive line rather than being
restricted to the drives apple bought - does anybody
know?

I emailed a news poster on the subject, and he
told me Seagate is "all right" - given the
context, this was damning by faint praise.

Jasmine has been getting slammed pretty badly.

Some kind of problem with Rodime has been cited - if
I recall correctly, the problem was between Rodime
and some company which assembled their mechanisms
into an end product.

Ehman's 40 meg has an attractive price in recent
MacWeek/MacWorld/MacUser ads.

LaCie has advertised 2 different 40 meg drives
with different access (seek?) times at
different prices in the same ad recently - what are
the other differences between these drives?  Also,
apparently as a special promotion, they are
offering an Epson 70 meg, but only with a 1 year
warranty, whereas their other drives have a
2 year warranty.

I've been told a "recent" MacWorld rated many
40 meggers, but haven't been able to find a copy
of that issue - which issue was it, anyway?

Comments?

Thanks.
