Well if you consider that they are running cheaper than what we were paying for HD's of the same size in IDE a couple of years ago. Your basically getting what you use to but better.. and it is more reliable. Actually a small price if you consider your time in completely reseting a system up then restoring your backup after you get the system online. (Providing you thought ahead enough to backup your important data on a regular basis) After your wonderful nice cheap IDE drive craps out.... After all.. what is our time worth these days. I know I don't come cheap.....=-) --- Jonathan Hutchins wrote: > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Dale [mailto:dale_n_ks@yahoo.com] > > > and with the cost of SCSI drives coming down its > > affordable now.. > > Yeah, they're what, only three times the price of an > IDE half the size? > > > majordomo@kclug.org > Enter without the quotes in body of message __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
