[comp.os.minix] Hard Drives

	Hi,

	I'm expexting my order from PH to be coming in next week
	and the thought of running Minix from floppies gives me
	hives, so I'm finally breaking down and buying a hard drive.

	Does anyone out there have Minix v1.2 up and running on a
	'Seagate ST-225 20mb (on an XT clone)' hard drive?

        If so what can you tell me about the reliabilty of this
	particular drive? (I've heard a few horror stories about 
	Seagates)

	As an aside, I'm buying Minix with a friend, but he did the 
	ordering. Is there some kind of registration that goes 
	along with the purchase? 

		What I'm getting at is...

		If my friend gets abducted by aliens, 
		will I still be able to buy the 1.3 upgrade 
		from PH?

	Thanks,
		Jeff
