Any comments about them? Yup, bought a 110 Mb Cirrus a little while ago. It's super-quiet and super-fast. They used to ship the CDC drives (of which the 110 is one) with internal SCSI cables which had line 40 cut, in order to ensure backward compatibility with old-ROM Mac Plus-es. This caused some problems for me ... but the solution is to install a new, uncut SCSI cable, which they told me this morning they are shipping ... I have found them to be very cooperative, informed, and patient in both sales and technical support. I would not hesitate to recommend buying from La Cie ("the Company"). v v sssss|| joseph hall || 4116 Brewster Drive v v s s || jnh@ecemwl.ncsu.edu (Internet) || Raleigh, NC 27606 v sss || SP Software/CAD Tool Developer, Mac Hacker and Keyboardist -----------|| Disclaimer: NCSU may not share my views, but is welcome to.
