Loh) Newsgroups: comp.sys.atari.st Subject: Silent HardDrive? / WordUp vs WRITE Keywords: hard-drive Supra Megafile, ICD, Astra Message-ID: <2502@sbcs.sunysb.edu> Date: 5 Apr 89 23:13:43 GMT Organization: State University of New York at Stony Brook Lines: 16 I have a Supra 20 Meg which has never failed me, but I'm getting a little annoyed by the noise it makes. Can anyone tell me which hard-drive out there is the quietest? Atari's Megafile, Supra's, ICD's, Astra's, etc. ??? Also i'm thinking of purchasing either MS WRITE or Neocepts' WordUp. I know that both uses GDOS, but is the output (on a dot-matrix) on one better than the other. I saw the output of WRITE (in graphics mode) a long time ago, and it looked quite bad - overly bold and jaggies if using large point-sizes. Thanks in advance. ---Lean -- if you can dream it, you can do it ... CSNET:lean@sbcs.csnet ... go sleep ARPA:lean@sbcs.sunysb.edu UUCP:{allegra, hocsd, philabs, ogcvax}!sbcs!lean
