Mike, Have you heard of the newest SyQuest drive now available? It is a 270MB removable in 3.5" format. It can read/write to the 105MB carts too! 13.5ms access time I've seen them available from MACWarehouse for 599.95 and with a cartridge its $649.95 (mounted in external case). Carts vary in price 1-4 for 99.95 each, the next five are $4/pc less, buy 10 and it's 89.95 each. The 105MB carts are just $69.95 each. I've just started keeping tabs on this product and expect the price to be less later. Usually MACwarehouse has fair pricing but if you look around you'll find a better deal. Probably find them in the newest Computer Shopper. I own three of the 44MB models. Two to three of them are connected to an A2000 most of the time. One of the three gets shuttled back and forth to the MACII cx that sits next to the Amiga. I just recently added a 345 MAXTOR to my SCSI lineup but the next large drive I buy just very well may be the 270MB version of SyQuest's 3.5" format removable drive. Now if your looking for compatibility with other SyQuest owners then I'd opt for the 44MB or 44/88 model. However, if its just to give you added storage, forget the 88MB model and get the 270/105 model. Here's MW's phone number and you can Go MW on CIS and check out the catalog for it.
