Ok, do any of you computer junkies have an unused working hard drive laying around anywhere? I am looking for something in the area of 20 gb in size. I am about to reinstall my computer, and I want to put the os on its own drive so I can use my other 2 hard drives (120 gb and 80 gb) for storage and app installs. Just thought I would check here before I go shopping for one. |

Well, I need at least 10 gigs for the os and all of the development environment stuff that gets installed into system locations. I currently have 9+ gigs of files in my 20 gig partition. an 8 gig wouldn't quite cut it. lol
I just bid on a set of 2 20 gig'ers on ebay. I am winning at a $1. lol. Wouldn't hurt to have 2, then I can have a backup os drive in case one goes dead...or setup a mirror if I have enough power plugs available inside.
Still interested if anyone happens to have something available tho. I don't expect to win that auction, but we will see. |

Um...that is kinda the entire reason for this thread. It will need to be some form of IDE. Don't care what kind of IDE, just some sort of IDE. |

they some times have amazing sales on newegg.com for stuff like that... just have to look a bit and wait for one. It will probably be a 36-40 gig.
