Anyone got experience with an IBM scsi drive, DDRS34560W-LVD?  Their web
page says the LVD stands for low voltage differential, and I've got bad
memories of dealing with Quantum differentials ... the IBM data says
it's fully compatible, on my existing bus, with single-ended scsi (at a
lower transfer rate, only 40MB), but I'm wondering.

At $175 for 4.5G, it seems like it would be a good deal if I knew it to
work .... does anyone have any experience with it?

BTW, this is for a hobby system, not a professional system, so anyone
suggesting I spend triple the price for extra reliability is going to be
politely ignored.
