My Seagate ST-238/Adaptec 2070A combo just departed for that last, big
backup in the sky. The outfit that sold me the pair no longer carries
the ST-238 and claims it will substitute a comparable MiniScribe 30 Mbyte
unit instead. They offer a choice of three RLL controllers, two of which
are the 2070A and a Western Digital controller.

I don't know anything about the MiniScribe or the Western Digital. I do
know that I am hesitant to accept another Adaptec.

Anyone have any words of wisdom to offer?
