[net.micro] Half-Height Drives for IBM PC

garyglad@utzoo.UUCP (Gary Gladstone) (01/23/85)

People I am working with are inerested in a new 1/2 height hard disk for
the IBM PC.  All I know about it is that four can fit in the space of 
two disk drives.  Each with 25 meg capacity.  They are manufactured by 
MINI-SCRIBE.
Does anyone know anything about the company, the disks - reliability, 
approximate cost, previous use, etc...
While on the subject of half-height periphs., hear anything about a
half-height tape streamer for backup.  After all, who wants to back up
75 meg onto floppys.
As usual, a summary will be posted to the net,
Thanks for any and all comments,
