Okay, this is the third time I've had to type this because I kept hitting
the wrong key...
Basically, I have the opportunity to grab a couple unused spare Seagate
ST-410800WD hard drives, 9GB, Fast/Wide, Differential, 68 pin connectors.
I will be able to get these drives at about 25% less than my cost through
Ingram Micro, TechData, Mersiel, etc... (Which are all out of stock BTW).
1. Is there any problems with these drives.
2. What exactly does "Differential" mean? Does it help, or hurt?
Differential drives appear to cost slightly more than the standard
versions, which leads me to believe that they may be better in some
way shape or form.
I'm supposed to pick these up in an hour or two so the quicker the response
the better...
