About 10 CMS SD-60's that have been shuffled between the Mac and the IIGS.
Also 3 SD-20's.

>                 Approx date of purchase
Between August 1987 and July 1988

>                 Dates of service/service performed/
One power supply on 60 dead in March of 1988, one in July of 88, one
in Sept 88

>                 Any comments on general reliability
Except for the power supplies, a generally excellent drive.  Much more
reliable than the Siders we replaced with them.
