[MacDV] Hard drives

[Jeff Fay]

I've had good luck with WiebeTech FW drives.

http://www.wiebetech.com

On the other hand, I've had bad experiences with Western Digital FW 
drives. I've had three different ones that all had their FW bridge go 
bad. The drive inside was fine - only the bridge died. One of those 
drives now lives happily and productively inside a WiebeTech enclosure; 
the other two are now internal drives.

In short: WiebeTech - YES!  Western Digital - NO!!!

just my .02
