[net.micro.cpm] MAXTOR hard disks

Eaton@HI-MULTICS.ARPA (09/25/84)

Does anyone have experience with MAXTOR hard disk drives.  They supply
drives with capacities that range from (get this) 65-380 megabytes
unformatted on 5 1/4 disks (up to 8 platters in a drive).  I've got
their literature but would like to hear from someone with personal
experience.  S-100 is selling the 140M version for about $4k.

No other manufacturer comes close to that capacity for that price.  It
almost sounds too good to be true.
