I am upgrading my system to a larger drive and would therefore like to sell my current drive. The drive is a Wren V 170 meg (approx formatted capacity) half-height drive. SCSI probe reports that it is model 94221-5 (Version 5982). The drive has a 16.1ms (Or is it 16.7? I forget) access time. This number is misleading though, as the Wren's are well known performance champs, and in most settings will far outperform the (nominally rated) 15ms quantum drives due to their much higher transfer rates. The drive is a bit less than a year old, and was bought from Micronet. The drive is mounted in micronet's custom mounting bracket which allows the drive to be mounted in a Mac IIcx or IIci. The drive fits perfectly and does not interfere with the use of the nubus slots. (Micronet is the only company I am aware of that has managed to package these 5 1/4" mechanisms for the IIcx/ci). I am asking $1100 obo. I would also consider selling the drive and mounting bracket separately if I get appropriate offers. The bracket could be used to mount any 5.25" half-height mechanism in a IIcx/ci.
