Well, I've been doing some research on which disk-drive to buy for
my 800.  These are the observations that I've heard:

Rana 1000 - From comments on the net and people I know who have
            recently purchased them, I've concluded that there
	    have been various problems in operating them ($320)

Trax	    I've heard there's alot of rfi noise on tv screens 
	    Built-in printer port ($380)

Percom	    reliable but expensive, built-in printer port ($450)

Indus	    power supplies have started to burn 
            Comes with software - word processing, spreadsheet
	    and file manager ($450)

Atari 1050  reliable, but dos III isn't out yet, and without it you
            can't use the "enhanced" density ($350)


Have any other comments to add?
