I would be grateful for any reports on the Supermac Dataframe XP60
hard disk drive.  It was suggested to me as an alternative to the
Rodime 60 drive, but all I know about the XP60 at this stage is that
it is less expensive and slower.  Other than that I would like to
know if the two drives are comparable in reliability and robustness.
(The drive is going to do a lot of travelling between home and uni.)
I don't need to know about dealers, unless you are writing about
Australia.  If you had a choice, which drive would you take?

A quick reply from you would be welcome.  I am really strapped for
disk space and I want to make a decision as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance,
