Well, the SyQuest 44 may have problems in the military, but none here at my
place. Using five cartridges regularly, with several others for backup.
Not one glitch in two years now. I have two friends in town who are also
using the SyQuest regularly (I mean as their regular HD) with -0problems.
I often see comments like yours, that the SyQuest has problems, but have
yet to hear of a concrete example. Perhaps you could let me know what has
been failing regularly for you, so that I can avoid it 🙂
If the SyQuest has a problem (again, I haven't heard of any actual
examples, just hearsay), I've wondered if it might be environment related.
My Amiga (and my friends) are in relatively clean, dust-free rooms. I
wonder if a different environment (ie. factory, dusty, etc) would lead to
problems that I wouldn't see?
