Is anyone using an ST296N with the IVS Trumpcard? I know ComputAbility
Consumer Electronics sells this combination as a kit, so surely someone
out there is using it.
Do you have diskperf results? Also what memory are you using with the
combination?
Seagate also makes a 3 1/2" imbedded SCSI drive that formats to ~80 M.
I can't remember the name of it offhand, but is anyone using this drive?
I have heard of problems with some Seagate drives, but the 296 doesn't
appear to be one of the real problem drives. True/false impression?
Does anyone with real knowledge of this problem know if the 3 1/2"
drive is significantly less reliable than the 5 1/4" 296?
I know that you get what you pay for. I'd just like to get as clear
a picture as possible of exactly what I'll be paying for.
Regards,
