[comp.sys.mac] Query 340MB MiniScribe

al1f+@andrew.cmu.edu (Andy A. Lee) (08/09/89)

Hello All,

     In September issue of MacUser, Hard Drive International has 340MB
MiniScribe hard drives priced at $1795 (internal) or $1895 (external).
According to their advertisement, these drives come complete with UniMac(tm)
formatting & partitioning software and all necessary cables/mounting tools.
And these are 16ms drives!

     Before I jump on the phone, I would like to hear from those who has
purchased this package. More specifically, I would like to know if these
drives are quiet, and if it is possible to use other partitioning softwares
instead of UniMac(tm).

     I need a RELIABLE, true SCSI partitioning software that is capable of
password protection, and (perhaps) options to resize partitions on-the-fly.
I'll summarize replies... thanks!
