[net.micro] Removable hard disks

mwf@osu-eddie.UUCP (Mark W. Froelich) (02/21/85)

Does anybody in netland have experience with the SyQuest cartridge
hard disk drives?  I may be able to get these drives w/controller
for about $500.  This is the 5 meg. model, which I believe is the 
same as that used by Tecmar, Quadram, Compac and others.  I need
to know such things as reliability, speed (vs. fixed disks), and
cartridge availiblity.  Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
				Thanks in advance,
				Mark Froelich
