I had the worst experience ever with DaeYoung drives in 1993. I bought a
system with a DaeYound hard drive in it and true to its name (and to
re-use the obvious cliche) it died young. It was replaced with another
DaeYoung drive which promptly bought the farm. They lasted less than a
week a piece.

I heard a rumor that DaeYoung drives were refurbished/repaired Conner hard
drives. Is there any truth to this myth?
