Title: 120 gig hard drive for 60 bucks
Post by: videoholic on December 15, 2003, 10:49:35 AM: I was walking around Circuit City the other day and they had a 120 gig hard drive for I think it was 129. Then they had 70 bucks in rebates. Came out to like 60 bucks.

Had to snag one. Should have snagged two, but I already had a 120 in my system.

Anyway, just a heads up if you guys was a new drive for cheap.

Makes me think about 10 years ago when gigabyte drives were finally coming down and I paid 400 for mine. That\'s a $500,000 drive I bought for 60 bucks. heh..

But I was just teasing SoulGrind. I\'ve owned Maxtor, Seagate and IBM. Neither of them have ever given me any trouble at all.

THey had a new rack of a ton of HDs, but even the 80 gig was more than what I paid for the 120. There was another one there. I should have probably bought it too.

you like teasing me, you dirty little sammy.

I\'m gonna get a new HD sometime, right now its no biggy. I\'ll get another seagate or WD, probably a 120 gig, not sure of the rpm though, 7200rpm or over. I\'ll be building a server comp when i go back on my broadband. which WILL be early next year.. woot. Found a company that has unlimted time and downloads on month by month contract.. Although i\'ll only have 30kbytes (256kbits) a sec download. which keeps it at 30usd, i could pay 50usd and get a 64kbytes (512kbits) connection. but 30kbytes is more then enough for me. Although i could go the 1.5mbit connection, but that\'ll cost 75usd a month. Screw that.

Post by: Living-In-Clip on December 20, 2003, 06:14:32 PM: I will get another USB drive eventually. Probablly a 120 gig , for my p0rn. As it is, I have around 60 gigs of the stuff and pretty soon I\'ll be running into a space problem. I refuse to delete any of it though.
