Dood, go to www.pricegrabber.com and look it up. Punch your zip code and they will give a final price which inlcudes tax, shipping, etc. I pretty much buy all my shit through them.

Redmanthatcould · 03-22-2007, 08:41 AM

Don't expect more than 100

Brad · 03-22-2007, 08:43 AM

not more than $100 like other people are saying. If Ebay doesn't pan out I would just go buy a hard drive and a $30 case put it together and you are ready to go. I would never buy an "external" hard drive bc they jack up the prices with fancy cases and charge more because people seem to think they are expensive when in reality they should only be $30-$50 more than an "internal" hard drive.

I would never use a Packard Bell HD, not even if people paid me to use it.
