Hi...I am using a Mass Microsystems removable-media drive
at work with a Mac II.  We have experienced a 100% failure
rate for these driver...YES 100% !  All 10 have had to go back
too the shop for drive or power supply failures.  We have to use
the removable media for classified work so the cartridges can
be stored in a safe.  I'd rather have a bigger safe and just 
put a regular drive in!  I can't speak for other brands, but the 
Syquest drives are in ours.
