> Might I ask you why you spent $1800 on a 100 meg Vulcan ...

I wasn't saying what I paid for it. I was pointing to the ridiculous fact that
such a high-end hard drive has a 20-cent fan in it. I didn't buy the Vulcan,
but rather reviewed it for inCider and still have it on loan.

Other than the noisy fan, it's a great drive. Great enough, in fact, that many
people will consider it worth the price difference between it and the low-end
homebrews you're touting. Although I think my favorite setup is my SCSI drive
with Multi-Kache SCSI controller.... it's fast like nothing you've ever
dreamed.
