Fujitsu is nice, Seagate is better. WD and Maxtor make poor doorstops as they are too light, but they make a funny plunk sound when they hit water. But it's the model of the drive and it's intended purpose that matters, not so much the label. Every manufacturer makes consumer grade equipment. DAve -- Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos for other non-international holidays, but nothing for Veterans? Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.

OK, I'm sorry for changing the subject but I have had good results with 18 and 36 GB IBM SCSI drives. What do you use? I generally use Seagate. Used to use IBM/Hitachi and Fujitsu. Still would if they were easier to find in stock around here. Have used Quantums, and long long ago Micropolis. Both should be avoided... Found a pile of new 4 gig SCSI disks on ebay, and have been using those for linux system disks for the last couple years. They're SCSI 2, great for booting from, they last forever... Ah, remember the good old days when you could buy a disk that was the right size for the job, not 1400x bigger than what you need... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | Jason Marshall, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Spots InterConnect, Inc.
