Since my current hard drive is making loud screeching noises,
I am once again looking for a replacement 20MB drive for my IBM PC.
I know this subject must come up all too often on this group,
but what are the current recommendations for a cheap to medium priced
hard disk?
Main concern is reliability (i.e. lasts longer than a year),
but speed is nice too.
What drives are known problem makers?
How do drive cards compare to standard drives?
How about 3.5" vs. 5.25"?
Where does one get the best prices?
