I can highly recommend Jasmine drives. They are fast, reliable, and
extremely reasonably priced. You won't find discounts on them, simply
because the list price isn't inflated. For example, I recently paid
$1249 for a 100 meg external drive.

The software that comes with the Jasmine drives is excellent, though
I had to trash the public domain staff when I repartionned (there wasn't
enough room on my internal hard drive to save the entire 8 or 9 meg of
stuff that was on the Jasmine drive). I used Jasmine's "driveware" to
manage the partions; it's easy to use. I'm also thrilled that the
Symantic Utilities are included.
