I have a 660Mb Fujitsu (not on an ISC machine) and am happy with it.

I am posting because I found a good price for Fujitsu drives recently.
$1470 for 660Mb and $2266 for 1.2 Gb from R-squared, 415 438 0800.

Has anyone had experience with R-squared???

They claim to support the 48 hour turnaround for the 5 year warranty.
