The only complaint I have with the Focus drives, and this is based on a
Focus 20 that I installed in my Grandmothers IIe, is that the drive took
the same amount of time (about 45 seconds to a minute) to be accessed
after a 3 finger salute reboot, that it did from a cold start. Very
annoying, but pry not as bad to someone who doesn't know this is unusual.
