  Advanced Storage Systems here in Dallas have played with a DAT, I
have NO idea if they got it working. Adv. Storage makes the NEXUS SCSI
card.

  A CDTV developer (Scott Lamb) has a 1.2G MiniScribe and has had no
problems (Besides formatting - You need a *BIG* bitmap for the initial
format, A small gotcha). He gets 1.9Megs/sec on a Hardframe. It uses
so much DMA bandwidth in that mode as to "artifact" the screen,
because the Amiga runs out of DMA time to refresh the screen :-)

  HP has a 5 year warranty as well.... Seems you can't loose with BIG drives.
