[comp.sys.ibm.pc] cheap CMI drives

I guess I was one of the lucky ones. I bought a CMI 20 meg AT drive
for $75 and it works fine so far. My friend bought one also, and it
didn't work. The repair company had it fixed in a week for $75 more.
At $125 total, still not too bad. We all know about what CMI drives
like to do so anyone building a cheap AT for hobbyist/home use may
be quite satisfied. I sure wouldn't risk important business data
on 'em though.
