    I have desperatly been searching for a solution to an all time computer 
problem, the lack of dependibility of conventional hard drives.

    Only now major distributers seem to be putting out optical hard drives,
 ready made for the amiga. But I was wondering about Write Once Read Many(WORM)
 drives. IS their any way to hook one up to an amiga? Does anyone know of a
 controller or driver for a WORM drive on the amiga?
 
    By the way, does anyone know the Read Speed on a WORM? I know the write
is incredibly slow..
