I'm looking for information on removable hard disks for a 386 clone
running DOS. I'm interested in both speed and reliability. I'm familiar
with Travel Disks and Imoega's Bernoulli drives, but they're too slow. I
also know about SYSGEN drives, but they're *very* unreliable. I've seen
ads for Disk Pack by Megadrive, but have no idea about their speed or
reliability. The Disk Pack is a SCSI drive but I'm not sure what that really
translates to as far as data transfer rates are concernd. Are there any
other drives that I might have overlooked?

Ideally what I want is:
  40-84 Mbyte unit capacity
  28 ms or better access time
  1:1 interleave, SCSI, ESDI, etc. performance
  true performane of 500Kbytes/sec transfer rate or better

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
