Actually, there was some traffic a few months ago about the CMS-60
drives.  It seems the drive is a bad design, or comes from an overly
cheap disk maker, so I would suggest --

  Don't Buy a CMS-60 disk drive!!!!

However, my CMS-80 / internal is working fine.  It sounds like CMS has
recently destroyed their warranty organization, since your problems
with the first two drives were solved earlier.  Maybe they will fix
their warranty organization in the near future....

I have a warm spot in my heart for CMS since their drive saved me $200
when everyone else (Jasmine) was charging highway-robbery prices for
an 80 megabyte drive....
