While I never had any problems with the RX50, I found

advantage was the extra capacity!
The big problems I heard about regarding the RX50 were:
- Drive speed tolerance was looser than that required to format media,
which is why the Rainbow was shipped without a formatter.
- Hub reinforcements could allegedly damage the plastic fingers that
held the diskette hub.
- It was possible to step the drive beyond track zero.
Don't really know if any of these are true.
