In reply to the message of kscott@locke.mmwb.ucsf.edu:

I'm not sure if the conner has a delay so that it can work in a classic,
but my friend work at Le Groupe DRBL in Montreal, Canada, and they sell
hard drives for classic from 40 to 300 Megs INTERNAL. It's a popular
option to buy the cheapest Mac, put in a video card/accelerator with a
full page display and a big disk. A 200 Meg for the classic sells for
under 900$ us. I know it's not a conner and it has the delayed startup
and they are much faster than the drives from apple, so if the apple
drive is a conner, then it's faster than a conner.

Anyway, if you want some info you can call them at: (514) 594-2338
from 9 am to 6 pm EST monday to saturday, and sunday you could get lucky
and get your hand on a technician doing some overtime... ( my friend to
name one). They probably will be able to help you with your Conner
drive question.

I do not work for the company, and i'm not a customer. I only know a
friend who works there as a technician. I just pass the information
along but do not consider it exact as my friend told me about that two
weeks ago. The best thing to do is to check for yourself.
