Any views on the DEC DSP5200S scsi drive.
I'm considering one -- since it meets my needs -- under $500 and
around 2GB.

Size of drive is not an issue -- I've got the case space.
How's the reliability, noise and heat.

Anyone have any other recommendations...  I'm looking for something
above 1gb and under $500.  The controller is a an Adaptec 1542CF.
I'm running on a lowly 486...
