It looks like the much-awaited Supra 30 meg disks are finally here, since
the unit I had ordered from Computer Mail Order arrived today.  It comes
pre-formatted and partitioned as 3 10-meg drives, C:-E:, although you can
change the partitions to suit your needs.  Interestingly, when running the
partitioning/formatting program, the type of disk is NOT "Supra 30meg" but
a Seagate unit with an Adaptec controller.  I suspect (but am not yet sure)
that the unit is a 20meg stretched via Adaptec's RLL SCSI controller.
