Castlewood ORB Ultra-SCSI to be released Today!

The due date for Ultra-SCSI Castlewood ORB, March 15, is now upon us. I eagerly expect shipment of my ORB drive any day now, and will post the unbiased results of its beating Jaz in every category (speed, value, form factor, construction, etc.) when I benchmark them side by side!

my order?

$199 Castlewood 2.2 Gigabyte Ultra-SCSI ORB drive (comes with 1 ORB disk)

plus

(2) $29 2.2 Gigabyte ORB disks

I will most assuredly be ordering more ORB disks soon as mine will probably fill up fast with audio files. But at only $29 a pop, why sweat it? The ability to quickly and economically swap between projects makes ORB a better solution than CD-RW. Archival however is still best left to CD-R disks.

Jaz? A horribly expensive joke, and a rip-off. I think I speak for thousands of Iomega customers: "Good-bye, Iomega."
