Does anybody have experience with the 10 MB hard disk offered by
Express Systems in Schaumburg, Illinois ($500 without controller)
or the 20 MB hard disk manufactured by MicroScience ($649 from 
PC Source in Austin, Texas)?  

Any information at all on these or other *inexpensive* drives will
be greatly appreciated.  Besides reliability, I'm interested in
whether they are excessively noisy (high pitched whines I can do 
without) or any problems having to do with AT compatibility.

Thanks in advance..
