^that post is over a month old and the quoted 80 dollar buck drive is back up to 130

anyone got something local, big, and cheap? i mainly use my drives for mixing music so big is good...depending on it's size, i might consider a 10k rpm drive, but I'm really looking for big, cheap, and reliable...if it has a little warranty left, even better.

thanks everyone
