That's the beauty of "standards"--you have so many to choose from.

I distinctly remember one model of Micropolis 9GB SCSI hard drives. 
200,000 MTBF.  Terrific unit, it was one of the rare ones that
actually performed to spec.

Nearly 100% failed within 12 months from spindle failure.

Just tell me how they came up with 200,000 hours MTBF?
