You obviously didn't get an original 6 MHz IBM

were that bad or if IBM just said "We'll take that pile of bad 20MB
drives off your hands." Damn drives sounded like an Apple II booting
up when they were working properly.... which was never for long.
Hmmm, I STILL have a working 20MB CMI drive. The noisy ones were the
100+MB Priams. All sorts of interesting sound effects.
