[comp.sys.amiga.marketplace] Cheap Hard Drives?

tjhayko@thunder.lakeheadu.ca (02/27/91)

Does anyone know where I can get a hard drive of reasonable  size
(>20MB)  with  some kind of guarantee for less that $200?  I need
to replace my crummy old SeaCrate ST 125N that died, and I  don't
have  much  money  to spend.  Any sugguestions would be most wel-
come.  Respond by email, since I doubt this  is  of  general  in-
terest.

Well, I can suggest one thing: unless you absolutely positively cannot live
without your hard drive, you should really save up until you can afford to
buy a descent one.  (Quantum seems to have an excellent reputation).

Sure, you save money immediately on a cheap HD when you purchase it.
But how much is it worth to you to avoid a prematurely flakey/dead HD?
