This hard drive will be used in addition to the 70MB hard drive already installed. I have heard some good things about Micropolis hard drives, and wondered if anyone in netland had any good or bad experiences with them, or could suggest a better alternative. My requirements for this puchase are: 1) Within 20% of $1000US, on the most expensive enhd. 2) At least 150MB capacity. 3) ESDI interface. 4) NO controller card neccessary, I plan to use my current one. 5) Mounting Brackets & cables for the PS/2 model 80 -071 would be a major plus. 6) Low level formatting software. 7) Otherwise, as fast and as much support software as possible. Please e-mail me directly, I will e-mail back to anyone who wishes to know the results of my search, or will post back to the net if a lot of people wish. Thank you very much, Quincey Koziol koziol@ncsa.uiuc.edu
