[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Quantum 105 -- OK?

carlo@zebra.cvs.rochester.edu (Carlo Tiana) (11/15/89)

I am buying a MacIIci without the standard 40/80Mb cards from Apple, since
I think I can get a bigger/better/faster drive from 3rd parties. I have
seen Quantum 105Mb drives, 12ms access advertised for under $800, which to
my untrained eye sounds like a good price. BUT I have heard about all these
failures on the 40/80Mb Quantum drives -- are the 105's affected by the
same problems? Does anyone have other suggestions for >80Mb, fast, reliable
and cheap-ish drives (esp. ones that can be put in a IIci with no
problems).

Thank you,
Carlo.
