Has anyone out there had experience with Miniscribe disk drives?  What
kind of reliability and performance do they have?  I am thinking of
getting a 300Mb Miniscribe (dont know the exact model) as the SCSI disk
subsystem for my SUN 3/50 (running 4.0).  Also, please tell me how much
noise they make (other than the usual head-seeking sounds).  Supposedly
this drive will do everything a WREN-IV will do at about the same price,
with a fixed number of sectors per track, and with slightly more disk
space.

	Thanks,
