From: "Lyle Bickley" <lbickley at bickleywest.com> > I checked out all the drives at Weird Stuff and none have the 800bpi option. If you dont insist on IBM, you should look for e.g. Qualstar 3412S. Excellent drive. It supports for reading : 800, 1600, 3200 and 6250. For writing : 1600, 3200 and 6250. Large diameter reels Nico
