Bill,
I have a 30 year old IBM SCSI drive that still works great. Yes,
every company has had good drives and bad drives. I have had Quantum
drives that have lasted for decades and I have had ones that died in a year.
:)
GOD Bless and Thanks,
rich!

model that was trash. The worst from my experience were
IBM disks made in Thailand.

I recall at one company we used Micropolous ( SP?
) drives. We had
almost 100% failure in less than 6 months. It did our company a lot of
damage.
A lot of outfits (e.g. Sun, HP) used Micropolis drives. Generally, they
were good, but expensive.
Maybe you're thinking of Miniscribe.
