[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Speed of HDs

pers@ifi.uio.no (Per Siljubergs}sen) (04/19/91)

I'm looking into buying a _fast_ HD. With virtual memory and faster
machines (IIfx) it seems to me that the speed of the HD is getting
more and more important.

Now I'm using an Apple 80MB internal HD with Quantum mechanism.
So, I would like to know if any of you have some data on the
speed of different HDs, especially compared to the Apple 80MB
internal. What I read in the adertisements are confusing.

Here are some of the HDs I think many of us are interested in;
Quantum, SyQuest, Seagate, Maxtor, WREN, HP, Fujitsu, etc..
