Chris,

Another drive made for the C-64 was the Indus GT drive (more
well known among Atari 8-bit users). It's cool looking--
all black with a smoked plexiglass cover and two 7 segment LED's
showing what track the drive was using or the most recent error
code.

And another was something like the "Excelerator Pro", which has
a cheap look and feel to it, though it may well be an OK drive.
