Default find firewire drive with oxford chipset

I am looking for a good drive (60 - 75 gig) firewire with oxford chipset. Who is the best manufacturer? Where is the best place to get these and for what price?

OWC sells the boxes with chipsets. http://eshop.macsales.com/Catalog_It...m=CASEKITFWPRO
For some reason I didn't fully understand, the IBM 75 gig drive @ 7200 is set up best for digital audio or video. I found one for $214, and the box was $129. Works great so far, I had to take out my Atto card before it would.
Granite makes a drive, I think it was slightly more expensive. Good luck.

Where did you find an IBM 75 GB Deskstar for $214? That's a great price. They are the best IDE drives I've seen for audio. I've got one in my G4 and it'll give me a 64 track wide session if the drive's not to full.

thanks,
