Panasonic and Hitachi now makes 4 mb floppy drives, I wonder if
these drive can also be used with NeXT computers

Maxoptix has a new optical drive Tahiti, which holds 1 giga, 35 ms ave
access time, 1.5 meg / sec sounds pretty good to me. Haven't checked
out the price

Panasonic has 1 gb direct overwrite optical drive, 90 ms avg. 10.3 Mbps max
SCSI-2

just fyi
