I just got a ST277R-1 from Hard Disk International for $433
including/shipping (fed ex std air).  It seems pretty quick (I am
currently using it with a XT comp., later I expect to move it to a
386).  It is suppose to be a 28 ms drive.  The seeking time is 28 ms
when I tested it.  It seems like a pretty good deal.  The kit for AT's
are a bit more expensive ($10-20?).  The kit (which I got) comes with
a controller.
