Actually the small cute ones are the 9xxx series :) The 5660A and 5850A
are the decathlons--also the 51080S. I have seen a lot of these drives die.
I'm not impressed with the manufacturing; I don't know if the slim form-factor
has anything to do with it. I have seen an equal number of bad hda's and
bad circuit boards.

Yes. My own list of CDC drives shows a lot of lettering schemes, but doesn't
explain all of them. Another poster mentioned the the Seagate website (thanks
to that person); I had poked around there but wasn't able to pick up the
"G" reference. Thanks.
