The Erikson drives (IBM 60GXP range) are really nice drives, and I've only seen good reports about them. The IBM 75GXP range, though, has seen a lot of trouble both under Linux and Windows. Note that "60GXP" has nothing at all to do with being "60G" in size: the 60GXPs come in a variety of different capacities. Cheers, Stephen
