#N:beta:5500002:000:645 beta!ed Jul 13 17:05:00 1982 I am looking for a hard disk for my S-100 (IEEE-696) system. Cost IS the object. I don't want to spend a lot of money on this. I am willing to make price/performance trade-offs. BYTE has lots of ads. My question to the community... What would you recommend (remember price counts)? What should be avoided? Why do you make this suggestion? Speed/reliability/support/gut feeling... I would like about 10Mbytes with the ability to expand up to larger storage later. It MUST adhere to IEEE-696 (proposed) as much as possible, especially the addressing. Responses to ...!decvax!sytek!zehntel!ed and I will summarize for all to see. Thanks, ed

I am preparing to purchase a winchester style hard disk for my PC. Anyone out there have any recomendations/warnings. I will be using it extensively, so I do not want a lemon! -- Sarima (Stanley Friesen) {trwrb|allegra|cbosgd|hplabs|ihnp4|aero!uscvax!akgua}!sdcrdcf!psivax!friesen or {ttdica|quad1|bellcore|scgvaxd}!psivax!friesen
