I have had nothing but good experiences with three or
four that I know of.  20 MB one in a 9 MHz IBM AT run
for four years continusly before it coughed a bad sector.  30MB one has run for three years without a new
bad sector.  I have an ST-251-1 (40MB) at home that's been
running for 1.5 years without a hitch.  It's partitioned as DOS/SCO.  less than 27ms seek avg.  I'm also looking to upgrade the diskspace, so I'd like to know
if there are any problems with the Seagate 80MB.
