Using the neat little SCSI probe CDEV, I discovered that I have a
Sony HD40 in my SE/30. Since Quantums are having all these problems, does
this mean that I am lucky, or are the Quantum drives theoretically superior
to the Sonys?

James, my February 1989 vintage SE/30 also has a Sony, showing SRD2040A, version 2.60 via SCSI Probe 2.01. Have had absolutely NO problems with it, nor with my 2 1/2 year old Mirror Technologies 40/40. Somehow, whether the Sony is better or NOT, I'd say it's been a far better DEAL than the Quantums...
