SparQ review: "Piggy bank - Gigabyte removable disk 'SparQ' by SyQuest"

<snip>

"Result - The poor software quality possibly will be improved by the European SparQ version being launched in March. What carries much more weight is the fact that already after two days of testing the EIDE drive showed read errors on the cartridge belonging to the kit. Considering these hard- and software defects we cannot recommend the SparQ drive for safeguarding data."

Hmmm, not the best of reviews - perhaps there's a "SparQ" of truth in some of those rumored quality issues.
