Me and my friend are soon buying large HD's in the 200-400 MB range to run UNIX on our A3000's. We are not quite sure what drives to buy. Primary consideration is price. Therefore we would like to know what experiences you people have had with non-Quantum drives. What about Maxtor, Conner, Seagate? Are there any other cheap good drives to buy? Question number 2: Where do we buy the cheapest drives in USA? What stores? Mail-order? Please reply by email. If there is interrest, I'll summarize. /Peter ---===***===--- Peter Sjostrom INTERNET: d88-psm@sm.luth.se PHONE: +46 920 67653 Aurorum 4:13 UUCP: {uunet,mcvax}!sunic.se!sigma.sm.luth.se!d88-psm S-951 65 Lulea Everytime a change is made, the world seems to fall Sweden apart ... like when my world fell apart - Alf ---===***===---

My supplier only deals with me because I tossed some gigabuck business his way. (well, only maybe it was only about 60 kilobucks). -- .--------------------------------------------------------------------------. |[- O] Rick Stevens | | ?
