Mac Direct (800-621-8461) has been advertising the following drive in MacWeek: Fujitsu 680 MB 5.25 inch Full Height Internal Drive Including Brackets, Cables, Software 16 ms access time, 200,000 hours MTBF, 5 year warranty This sounds like a very good deal! Can anybody provide information on the following: 1. How does the transfer rate of this drive compare with other drives? (Either relative or absolute numbers would be useful here.) 2. What is the noise level of this drive, compared to other drives? 3. Is this drive compatible with the Mac II fx? 4. Does Silver Lining support this drive? 5. Is this drive compatible with A/UX 2.0? 6. Has anyone had any experience (positive or negative) with Mac Direct? I'll summarize responses if there is interest. Herb Weiner (herbw@midas.wr.tek.com)
