How about a vote on the BEST disk drives ever?
I'd vote:
Bulletproof drives:
The Atari 810, 1050, and any modified version
Seagate St225,251, and 4096 interface version notwithstanding
Hmmm, you've obviously never experienced *stiction*!
Teac floppy mechanisms - just great mechs
Well you know, these were originally National/Matsushita/Panasonic
drives; whatever the labeling, they (almost) never break!
I have a pair of JA-455's I bought in 1986, and they *still*
work.
CDC/Imprimis hard disks
You gotta love these, but I always felt that the earlier
Fujitsu drives (8" & 5.25") just reeked of *quality*.
