Yeah, I think Seagate has the easiest site to find disk drive information
in nauseating detail.  The best bar none.  One may argue whether Seagate
is the best drive out there but in my opinion it is the best used drive
out there because it it so easy to find ALL the info on the drive.  I have
eight Seagates, all ancient, all seem to work fine (a 1 GB IDE, a 2 GB IDE,
a 2 GB Hawk, two 4 GB Hawks and three 4 GB Barracudas - all the Barracudas
are different too).

For those following this thread, David is correct about the drive specs,
all the other speculation is generally incorrect.  It's a nice drive if
you have an UltraSCSI controller.
