(10) 120G IDE HD's is roughly $1650. just thought this might be helpful... but you can manage to get maxtor 80g 7200rpm drives from staples, after coupons and rebates for about $20... even $10 if you add some other items that are free after rebate and use a different coupon. not advocating any retailer here... but i thought this tidbit might be useful for some... if they require a drive. -Sameer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
