The local dealer here in Ottawa says that Rodine went out of business about a month or 2 ago. If this is the case, the warrantees aren't worth much unless someone else picks them up. The Rodine drives for sale on the net are tempting, but without any warranty, i don't think i'll take the risk.

Of course, I have never heard of a "Rodine" disk manufacturer. However, I know someone who works for "Rodime", a hard disk drive manufacturer centered in Scotland, with divisions in Boca Raton, Florida, and some branches in Hong Kong and elsewhere in the Orient. I assure you I would have heard if they went out of business a month ago. They are still in business, paying their employees, and embarking into adventures in new drive technology. I'd go to a different dealer. :) -Todd C.
