Mac Storage Faq

This is the new FAQ for the new comp.sys.mac.hardware.storage newsgroup. The FAQ answers many common questions about general Mac storage, floppy drives, CD-ROM drives, and hard drives. The FAQ is a plain text file, formatted with setext. It can be read in any word processor or text editor that can open files larger than 32K, but it looks super nice in EasyView. Chapter 7 describes various storage devices (SyQuest, Zip, magneto-optical, etc.), and has information about the upcoming Jaz and EZ 135 drives. Chapter 7 also compares various removable cartridge devices based on performance and cost. This archive also contains a spreadsheet for calculating storage costs for removable cartridge drives. The spreadsheet is provided in ClarisWorks 2.0, Excel 3.0, and SYLK formats.
