Thanks guys - perfect

Ok... I'm going to assume that you need PATA.

 

If you don't want to deal with a rebate, here is a good back to school deal from newegg:

 

Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 (Perpendicular Recording) ST3250620AS 250GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM - $79.99 Shipped

 

The pros:

- No Rebate

- 5 Year warranty

- New Perpendicular recording (higher density and faster)

 

The cons:

- OEM (no cable or software, but the software is a free download)

- 250 GB compared to 300 GB above

I've got a 300GB Wester Digital drive that I'm selling for $80 shipped. It's brand new in the box.
