Right, but prices seem a little bit higher right now.  I did see
a 20GB drive (Samsung?) for about US$85 a month ago or so.
Obviously it would pointless to have UDMA/33, but just the fact
that EIDE is so darn cheap makes it attractive.
Just imagine a drive/controller combo that could always saturate
the QBUS.  And with no noise, heat, or vibration. (to speak of)
