FOUND: Inexpensive 2.5" 7200RPM PATA disk

#1 Post by fuscob » Tue Jan 01, 2013 10:14 pm

I know these are becoming somewhat rare these days, but I thought I'd ask. I'm looking for a 7200RPM PATA disk to rehabilitate my T43 a bit. Capacity isn't that important...60-100GB would be best. Hoping to spend no more than $30-$40 including shipping if that's possible. Please PM or post here with any offers. Thanks!

Not exactly what you asked for but:

I picked up a Re-certified Seagate 120gig, with a 1 year Factory warranty for $40.00 shipped a few weeks ago. You do need to watch almost daily as they typically have less than 30 to sell.

Thanks for the tip, Ron - I'll keep an eye on that site.

Hello,
may well be, I might help. I'll look if I still have spare ones. But: That will be used ones.
