Hi Greg,

I have a couple of Sparc LC and LX machines here, and they both have 3.2 gig
SCSI Quantum's internally. However, I've gone a little off Quantum drives
since I had two of their 2.1 gig SCSI Fireball's die on me a very short time
after being received and installed (they were new units).

I currently use IBM 3.5" SCSI drives, and to date I've had no problems with
them at all. They seem to be quieter and less power-consuming than the
equivalent Quantum models too.

Regards,

Craig.
