What do they actually format to?

~~craig588~~ · Jan 31, 2004, 03:06 PM

he means the acctual size. Its not acctually 250GB, because they call it 1,000,000,000 rather than 1,073,741,824.

tek · Jan 31, 2004, 03:08 PM

Ooooohhh, I dunno... as mentioned above they are BRAND new sealed in that tight package I wouldn't know...
I will be gettin a third one soon tho but I dont know if I'll be installing it anytime soon.

~~craig588~~ · Jan 31, 2004, 03:11 PM

tek · Feb 2, 2004, 09:48 AM

thats a hot deal too bad i'm too poor to pick one up right now

tek · Feb 2, 2004, 09:08 PM

Yeah this is def. a SICK drive - runs about 20,000MB's faster than my Western Digital 60GB 7200RPM 8Mb buffer HD.

~~Crash Override~~ · Feb 2, 2004, 10:29 PM

grumbles loudly about being poor again as he stares at those drives

Right now Im trying to convince my fiance to part with 14 dollars so I can run dual channel in my intel rig and get a new HD for it so she can have hers back

Only would cost 14 since Im making some money off of selling a printer and stuff to some people for their computers.

Wish I had the money for both of those things

Half a Terabyte of RAID 0 Goodness

I've seen many more reports of WD's dying on people than Maxtors.

thats all the proof I need - and my WD 60GB started making loud noises after only 6 months, cooled by two fans the entire time.

Was the system overclocked and were you using one of the HD cooler systems?

Lots of Hard Drives have died from cooler systems that actually cause more issues than they fix

That being said though I still have a 20MB Western Digital HD from the '80s thats still chugging along strong in my IBM PS/2 286 based system

I still use it occasionally for having fun programming in good old BASIC

tek · Feb 7, 2004, 09:25 PM

If anybody is interested I'll go as low as $150 for one w/o shipping and $310 with shipping for both.

PM me dont post in this thread I wont be visiting it anymore.

tek · Feb 8, 2004, 03:32 PM

7 up for sale now, yes.... 7 x 250GB - lol.

~~craig588~~ · Feb 8, 2004, 10:13 PM
