7200 RPM Hard Drive

[Guest DigDoug]

I'm looking for a ~sub $100 7200 RPM Hard Drive. Of course, the best price per megabyte is what I'm looking for.

Or do you need IDE?

[Guest DigDoug]

It would be going in that Gateway I posted about earlier. I'm going to say IDE/ATA.

 

PATA?? What is that?

That's around 33 cents per gig. Is there anything smaller with similiar price specs? She really doesn't need that much space.

How about 80GB IDE for $59.99 with no rebate hassles and local pickup?

Thanks Nate and Ross. I think the Seagate $40 AR is the winner!

Very good deal.

 

The 80GB for $59.99 OTD that I mentioned is part of a sale 4/7 - 4/8 but it's a no name brand.

 

The Seagate that Nate linked to is 160GB, 7200RPM, $39.99 AR and carries a 5 yr warranty.

 

Thanks Nate and Ross. I think the Seagate $40 AR is the winner!

Agreed!
