My "favorite" was an old 150MB Priam drive - it used to wake my Mum up
at 3am when it did the news expiry, and it lived at the other end of the
house.  RZ57's are relatively quiet :-) Talking about RZ5* series, ever
noticed that the number of sectors on an RZ56 and the size of lots of
Ultrix CD's is the same?
