I'm ready to add an external SCSI to my SE. Please e-mail
recommendations (positive or negative) on drives in the
20-40Mb range. Reliability and price are more important
than speed. Thanks for the help.

Surely this question has been asked before, and it will be asked again, so let us determine once and for all which hard drive a Mac user should buy. If those of you who know about these things could EMAIL your vote (anti-votes will also be accepted) to: cs_james@gsbacd.uchicago.edu, I will compile and post the results. Thank you! -James-

Thank you! > -James- I'm sorry, I refuse to participate in this survey. There is no way I am going to recommend a drive blindly, without knowing what the user really needs. I get this question as many as five times a day, and the answer varies from getting a Quantum 40 to getting a CDC 91 to getting a Syquest-type drive to sticking with floppies. Sometimes I even recommend the MicroNet 300, based on CDC drives. It all depends. Which is why I refuse to recommend just one drive. I'm full of ideas about what NOT to buy, though... --- Alex
