I have accumulated one year each on two of these drives, and have had zero problems. If the 38ms seek is too slow there is a 251-1 model with 28ms seek. If I were buying again I'd get it. It's plated media, and RLL controller makers have said it works with their drives. I'm waititng for time to try. -- bill davidsen (wedu@ge-crd.arpa) {uunet | philabs | seismo}!steinmetz!crdos1!davidsen "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
