Fireball's a Blazing, But Expensive, Drive However, when it comes to price, the Fireball EX 12.7GB trips: At $359, it costs 2.8 cents per MB. The DiamondMax 4320 costs the same and offers an additional 4.5GB (for a cost of 2.1 cents per MB). We've found Quantum's Fireball drives to be highly reliable.
