- Well I don't know about SyQuests (beyond my Dad having a 44meg one)
- I do know that IOmega's Bernoulli drive is an excellent deal. It can
- be gotten in many places for $650. You get a coupon for a free disk.
- They also have the best service of ANY company I have ever dealt with.
- I brough my drive (it is portable) to Nova Scotia and it got damaged
- in transit on the plane. I called IOmega and the NEXT DAY I had a
- new drive on my doorstep! Just a couple of weeks ago a friend of
- mine managed to break the spindle in one of my disks. Bernoulli
- replaced it free. (Unfortunately my backups are in Canada)
-
- Anyways, I think that the Bernoulli is faster and it certainly seems like
- a great deal with me. Like I said, I am very impressed with the company
