Message-ID: Date: 21 Feb 89 15:59:24 GMT Organization: Class of '92, Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburgh, PA Lines: 13 I've yet to find a reasonable price on Commodore's external drive - the third party drives cost, on the average, $50 less than the A1010. Are these drives (some being sold for as little as $140) reliable? It's not worth a $50 savings to have a drive that either won't read some disks or dots them with errors... I would really appreciate any opinions/info. about experience people have had with the various 3rd party drives. - Drew Andrew Kompanek ARPA: ak10+@andrew.cmu.edu Carnegie Mellon University
