I can. Two IDE drives from one of my machines:
hda: Conner Peripherals 210MB - CP3201F, 203MB w/64kB Cache, CHS=684/16/38
hdb: WDC AC2170M, 162MB w/32kB Cache, CHS=1010/6/55
The Western Digital drive was bought with the PC in January 1993 (486sx24
later upgraded to 486dx30), so has reached 9 years old. The Conner is
a year or two younger.
The machine spent most of the time initially constantly on, had a idle
period for several years, and is now on full time again as a DNS server.
