David, I bought the Bernoulli 90 drive when it first came out. I was in engineering, and that's what my customers used. When I switched my business to graphics, I found out that all the local graphics services used SyQuest (big in the Mac world). I would recommend checking with the services you will be using and buy what they have, or you will be wasting big money. By the way, I have only found removable disks good for carrying graphics files to output services. If you are looking at the removable hard disks for expanding your computer's hard disk storage, I would discourage you for several reasons. The main one is the price. Look at the price of each removable disk, and compare to the current hard disk prices. If you want storage, look at the CD or DAT backup. If you are just tired of swapping floppies between computers, spend $200. on two network cards and use Windows for Workgroups to transfer. byron engineering arts
