Conner lasts, but I gather they got bought out? I have an old 420MB Conner, still works, how stable are 10,000 RPM drives and FlashROM drives, I'm thinking of buying a nice harddrive for my 2000. Also, I maybe? shouldn't be looking at 10,000 cause of the fact my HD controller tis Z2 and is limtied to 3.28Meg/Sec or some such similiar IIRC...
Anyhow... I've yet to get a bad HD, I'm really lucky with some stuff I guess, but even the 65MB SCSI2 drive that came with my Amiga 2000 (I think Quantum something) still works. Although the 1GB Scsi2 drive I have in there now has a bunch of bad blocks (confined to one partition though oddly enough, I think it ran out of space to store the bad blocks, and hdtoolbox hates the SCSI controller I'm replacing)
