I am considering buying an Adaptec RLL controller to use on a 
Seagate 4096 - 80Mb drive.  I understand that the 4096's are not
rated for RLL, nevertheless I was told that it works 90% of the
time.  The reason for doing this is to get the additional 30% or
so increase in capacity for almost free.

Has anybody on the net done this ?  Any experieces, good or bad,
or any more hearsay ?
