I have had a Cirrus 60Mb drive for over a year with no problems
and my Mom has two others with no problems.  The cases are a little
lighter weight than some drives, but mechanically they seem reliable.
They are fairly quiet (compared with a Dataframe).  The volume
partitioning software is very nice and works with other drives as
well (Silver Lining).  I'm using it on a CMS, also.  As with all
price leading companies, one worries about customer support. I've
seen their offices (next to me in Tigard, OR) and although they
are cramped like all start up companies, they are established.
