MacWorld had an article earlier this year (January? February?) discussing
different hard disks.  It gives a VERY complete comparison between MANY
different types of drives.

Although I have heard good things about their drives, I thought I would
mention that the last two Mac IIs we got contained CMS 20M drives.  Within
30 days the drive bearing went out rendering the drive completely useless.
I think that the drive is a Seagate.  I have also heard good things about
them.  But, first hand experience tends to change my opinion...  The bad
part is it happened to my boss!
