off topic, but speaking of JTS, egghead is/was selling JTS 1gig drives for
$99. i bought one, and works great! quiet, and has a 3 year warranty. all i
got was the drive in a box, but then again, that's all i wanted.

Well, it won't help you now, but a company called
JTS Corporation has the
best
HDDs I've seen in a LONG time. I was using a WD
Caviar 2.0 GB, and it was
LOUD!!! It also had a fairly good HDD Test Score: 2.6 by the Norton
Utilities
benchmarks. I ran the test with my NEW 2.0 GB JTS, which got a 4.0!!!
Also,
it's about $20-$40 cheaper than the equivelent Caviar. The best part: It
has a
cover with rubber on the outside. I had it IN THE OPEN for about 3 weeks,
and
it still worked just fine. The cover protects it from static electrictity
form
jerks like me, and from shock, stuff like that.
