Re: where to get old hard drives?



Michael --

Sorry to hear about your loss.  Where should we send flowers? :-)

If you ask google for something like

  used hard drive quantum viking scsi

you'll find some places such as

  9to5computer.com
  harddrivesforless.com
  harddrives.yourbeststores.com
  lowendmac.com
  megamacs.com
  partscloset.com
  
that sell used items.  Yes, it's possible to swap the electronics and
keep the platters; I did that on a Quantum IDE for a customer a while
ago.  The trick was finding the matching drive :-)  In my case, it didn't
even have to be a perfect match; close enough was good enough.


HTH & HAND

:-D
