[comp.sys.mac.hardware] 135, 180 Mb Fujitsu drives -- any good?

rowen@blake.u.washington.edu (Russell Owen) (07/04/90)

Ehman is selling Fujitsu drives: 135Mb for $1000, 180Mb for 1100 (external).
These have a claimed mean time between failure (MTBF) of 100,000 hours.

Does anyone have any experience with these drives? I'm especially interested
in actual reliability, and noise level. We've been using Quantum drives,
and are quite happy with them (VERY quiet drives!), but the extra size and
longer claimed MTBF of the Fujitsus both look attractive.

Much thanks
