Yeah, I would'nt rely on Bigfoot drives, too. They are *very* low-cost and so is the
quality and therefore reliability.
We had several of these which gave up work quite quickly.
One should try to avoid them.

Wasn't there some discussion recently looking
for < 10 GB drives?
There's a bunch of 2.5GB drives on dovebid right now...
Quantum Bigfoot--bleah. Miserable things.

Has anyone checked http://www.pcliquidator.com for smaller hard drives. Some
things they sell are a bit over priced but most are pretty good. They have a
bunch of under 10GB drives for sale, both SCSI and IDE, plus check the bulk
section for assorted "pot luck" drives all tested and cleaned. I have no
affiliation with them but have bought a bunch of stuff from them in the past
for older system repairs.
