I am planning on getting a 3.5 inch drive to add to my AT clone.  
My qestion is which is the best manufacturer.  
I have heard of:
Toshiba
Sony
TEAC
Mitsubishi
Fijitsu

Most of all I am looking for reliability but I am also concerned about
noise and speed.  One last thing---I have heard that some drives have
a jumper or switch that makes them disable(not care about) the High
Density hole so you can use 720K floppies as 1.44M floppies. 

If you have any information or preferences on which brand of floppy
drive you like, please E-Mail me a quick note.

	Thanks in advance,
