I've spent quite a lot of time in the last week phoning vendors about hard  
drives. I've called all of those you've mentioned, as well as Acropolis  
(1-800-735-4311; talk to Mark Connely; I'm probably going to buy from him),
Quick (1-800-800-5500), Fast Access (1-708-530-7749), Falcon (1-800-326-1002),
Spherical Solutions (1-415-383-7512; talk to Sam; I may buy from him), Relax  
(1-510-471-6112), Tass Optical World (1-619-558-8882), Conner (1-708-526-3935),  
and  East Coast (1-308-683-0339).

Fast Access, Spherical,Tass,Tecor and Cube Route were the most NeXT  
knowledgeable (or appeared so.) Conner, East Coast and Acropolis had the best  
prices. Acropolis and Tass had good warranty service (24-48 hr turn around.)
