	I am using a Connors HD40 at the moment, as it is fitted to the Mac
Portable I play with at night :-)
It is reasonable quiet, quick, and as tough as boots! This machine is the first
portable in the State, and we are about last on the list to have a play with
it: every man and his dog have thrashed this machine. It's done the rounds of
resellers and MegaCorps for weeks now, and hasn't missed a beat. 
I would not be disappointed if Apple got into these drives in a big way, based
on my experience to date..(mind you, I thought the Quantum 3.5" sounded good)

Cheers
