[comp.sys.mac] Hard Drives?

quinn@killington.dartmouth.edu (Jerry Quinn) (05/02/89)

I'm interested in getting a ~40meg drive for my macplus.  There are
two companies offering substantially lower priced drives:

MacLand - 

Macbest 40 external - 28ms @ $579


Hard Drives International -

45 Mb Miniscribe external - 28ms @ $549


These companies and prices were in the May MacWorld.  Does anyone have
any suggestions/complaints/compliments about either the companies or
the drives I mentioned?  I was warned about reliability in noname
drives.

either reply to the net or e-mail.

thanks in advance,

Jerry Quinn

I am looking for a AFTER MARKET Hard Drive for my Mac II.  What I would 
like to know is:  Is there any difference between SCSI drives for a Mac, 
and the same drives for a IBM other than the neccessary software. 
In other words would a IBM SCSI drive with the proper installation 
software work for a Mac II?

Thank You, Rick Herinckx
