I was recently trying to buy the IBM's 2.1G hard disk drive for my 760CD
>from a reseller. But he tried to convince me that I would be better off
buying a third party 2.0G disk made by a company called CMF. The prices
quoted were $1184 for the IBM 2.1G disk v/s $919 for the CMF 2.0G disk.

Has anyone had any positive/negative experience with using third party
disks on 760CD? Are there any other third party disk choices besides
CMF? Other than the price, what are some other pro's and con's of using
third party disks? I am sure using them would surely have an effect on
the machine warranty!

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
