Whats a good place to buy a few 500mb and 2gb IDE drives for projects? I have a 386
limited to 512mb and have a 486 that tops out at 2gb for dos and wanted to test a few
older OS on them but ran out of drives. I need maybe 2 of each size dont care about brand
as long as they are 3.5" hh drives (I have removable IDE cariers for them).
Looks like 6-8gb is the low end size liquidaters on the net are selling.

You don't say where you are - putting out the word on one of my local
usenet groups worked when I needed such a drive. Surprising how many
people have old PCs lying around which they've just never got around to
throwing out.

I think Apex Electronics (or is it Apex Surplus) in Sun Valley CA still
has a cubic furlong of 1gb drives. Ask for Don, tell him I sent you.
