Hard Drives (not of huge capacity) needed

Kameleon · #1 (**permalink**) 10-13-2002, 09:35 AM

Hey - I'm looking for a couple of hard drives to use as a short-term measure until I can get myself a decent-sized thing rather than the 4GB thing I have currently. I'm in the UK, and am willing to pay a fair price and postage (from within the country) for any spare hard disks you might have lying around gathering dust. All I ask is that they are of a capacity of 4GB or over, ATA33 and clean (well, they don't have to be clean, I'm gonna format them anyway

)

Sorry, I don't really want to pay for postage from all the way over in California...

What is your budget? PC World are selling new, non-branded HD for about £30 IIRC

Besides the fact that I would sell my soul before going to PC World, I can't find anything for under £55 on their website - and that's only a 20GB drive. How much I'm willing to spend really depends on how good a deal I'm being offered, but I'm really thinking no more than £30 total to spend...student=broke
