...Or Dive into DVD If you need really big removable storage, the DVD-RAM drive from LaCie (503 844-4500 or sales@lacie. com) may fill the bill. The $800 drive, which connects using a SCSI interface only, can store up to 5.2 Gb on a double-sided $45 disk. The drive, which is manufactured by Panasonic, can also read CD-ROMs, audio CDs, and prerecorded DVDs. But the special DVD disks that it writes can only be read by the newest, so-called fourth-generation DVD drives. BY STEPHEN H.
