Trying not to be too technical, the ST-1102A that came in my ZEOS 386SX
has worked quite well in the 5-6 months I've had it.

I'm thinking of buying a ST-1102A 89MB IDE hard drive for my 386 to use along
with a 3.5inch 42MB IDE.

With all the comments about 'stiction' on Seagate drives I would be interested
if anyone else has any experience with the ST-1102A.

Also, why are 3.5 inch hard drives cheaper than 5.25 drives, and is there any
reliablity difference between the two sizes ?

Thanks in advance,

-Dom.
