Hard Drive

[elena_398]

My husband is going to build my 10 yr old son a computer. My 10 yr old is saving up to buy each component of it with his own money. We are in need of a inexpensive Hard Drive. nothing big as he just wants it for basic stuff (games, homework etc). We can always add a bigger hard drive later. Need to find a deal on a 40 GB (internal) Hard Drive. Thanks for any help!

At this price, you'll be fine with any of these, so you might just want to pick the cheapest.

At these prices, this would be a better deal.

I have a Staples about 20 minutes from me. I think I'll tell my husband to get the 80GB. Thanks everyone

If you've got a Fry's near you you might want to look at their ad. They almost always have a Seagate 160 GB for 50 AR. You pay 108 upfront and then get a nice check for $50 about 6 weeks later. Worked out great for me and you can't get that much space for any cheaper.

 

40 GB hard drives aren't worth it because it costs more than a buck a gig.

 

They also have the Seagate deal online I believe, but I think it's about 5 bucks more.
