Hi Fred
The drive I'm going to use has been checked to be working on
a PC. What do you have against the Qume drives.

1) It is the slowest drive that IBM ever used. Normally, that wouldn't
matter to me, but it was SO slow that IBM had to switch from PC-DOS two
point zero to PC-DOS two point ten to handle a drive that was TOO slow.
2) We had an extremely high failure rate with that particular drive.
