I would like to hear some information about 40-50 MB external SCSI drives
for Macintosh. I am interested in purchasing one as a secondary drive 
to be used at work and at home so I can tranfer data more easily. What is 
important is the price, durability and portability. Speed is a secondary 
priority. I was interested in what people think of the Jasmine Direct Drive 40. 
It is a good price, but I have heard bad things about Jasmine service and 
their reputation as well. I just want a good rugged drive at an affordable 
price. I would not like to pay more than $400 for a drive. Also, what 
mechanisms are good.. Quantum?? Fugitsu?? I can summarize the results, 
if anyone is interested. 

Thanks
