I've a lot Compaq discs too. Usually 7200 rpm 2Gb discs (like st2490a, st32550). You don't know what noise is until you have had a 2490a :-0 I've a disc cabinet with 7 of them (for my Compaq Proliant), and they start one after eachother (to keep drain on current down). It's like a F16 accelerating :_) -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
