[net.micro.mac] Hard disk query

evans@mhuxt.UUCP (crandall) (06/06/85)

I'm in the market for a 10 meg (or larger) hard disk for my Mac and was
wondering if anyone has used the MacBottom. A dealer told me that it has
been raved about on Compuserve (which I don't read). The company is very
helpful when one calls them, but it isn't clear if the product is in the
vaporware category as far as production goes. 

			thanks in advance

I'm looking into getting an external hard disk for a Macintosh Plus.
Does anyone have any experiences to report, good or bad, with any
of the following products?

	- MDIdeas "HD-20"
	- LoDOWN "LoDOWN-20"
	- Mirror Technologies "MagNet 20X"
	- Warp Nine Engineering "Photon 20"
	- Peripheral Land "PL20"

Are there any 20-Meg drives worth considering that aren't listed here?

Please mail replies to me; I'll post a summary if there are enough
responses.
