Where can I get a reasonable price on a midsized ( 40-80 M) SCSI _fast_ hard drive? No more of this ADAPTEC4000+ST506-type crap - tooooooo ssslllllooooowwwww .... I know someone was also selling some huge Maxtor ( I think ) drives a while ago - got any more? :-) What's the best I can get in the 1000-1500 (Canadian) price range?
