I think my 105MB Syquest had two years warranty on the drive and I know it
was five on the cartridges because the cases have still got the labels on to
prove it :-)

I bought it about three years ago, so Syquest's warranty policy may since
have changed. I certainly couldn't comment about Iomega's.

Removed them? They're brand new. I wouldn't take a lot of notice of what WE
say anyway, but's that's another story.....

Well I guess the answer to that one is "Not if you don't want to use more
than that in software and data" :-)

It would be a bit of a problem for the CD if distribution grew to that size.
