- I replaced my computer's 52 meg drive (my condolences on your 40 meg one)
- as soon as I bought it (I included it with my A2000+GVP A3001+Microbotics
- Hardframe so I could keep my 210). I have been running with a Quantum
- 210 and an external (obviously) SyQuest 44 meg drive since that time.
- Let's see, that was at the end of the power-up program last year so that's
- about what...last October...about 13 months, without a single problem.
- I've also had a CD-ROM attached and another external Quantum (40 meg I
- think) without any problems.
-
- If you would like more info, let me know.
