Hi,
I use an Bernouilli 150 transportable since last June. I found it very handy. I
have no problem with it. It work well and I have no special problem with the
configuration. It is not as fast as an hard disk but I can run program from it
at an acceptable speed. The thing I really appreciate from my 150 is that I can
bring big animation files at my working place inside a briefcase. There is no
Bernouilli drive at my working place so I bring the whole thing. Usually you
can connect easily to an SCSI port and run your stuff on another machine. The
hardware lock of 3DS is incompatible with the parallel port connector option of
Bernouilli, so SCSI connector is recommanded and faster anyway.The SCSI board
is not included with the Bernouilli, it's an extra :-(. The possibility to buy
new cartridges is very interesting. They have a 230 Mb model now ! The service
at their forum on Cserve is good. I can even find a french speaking tech rep
when I call at Iomega ! With the price of hard drive falling these days, it's
may be a bit expensive but if you need transportability.
Have a good day
