I just took delivery of my Toshiba 1.2GB drive this week.  I'm not using 
it internally, but it has been plug and play externally, so you should
have no trouble except for the heat issue.

Anybody out there got a decent drive benchmark program they could NeXTmail
me?  (I don't have Internet access or I'd peruse the archives.)  I've got
a couple but don't trust the results.  One says the drive can write over
twice as fast as it can read, and the other says it can read over 5 times
as fast as it can write.  I'm not after a "true" benchmark, but something
internally consistent would be nice.  I'd also like to compare various
drives I have access to.  Thanks in advance.
