My brother-in-law wants to add a hard drive to his Mac Plus.
He's found an ad from MacLand, a mail order house, for a
40MB, 19ms access Quantum drive for $649.  He thinks it is
their private label packaging of the drive.  He's asked me
to check if this is a good deal.  Does anyone have anything
to report on MacLand or on prices for 40MB drives?  He's been
told that Quantum drives are the best and that Seagate aren't
quite as good.  He's also been considering drives by CMS,
La Cie, and Peripheral Land.

Any advice will be appreciated.  Since this has probably been
discussed many times on the net, please reply by mail.
