FREE* to good home: 3x 2.1GB narrow SCSI drives
« on: October 15, 2012, 10:47:21 PM »
I have three 2.1GB narrow (50-pin) SCSI drives.  These are 3.5" small form factor (same size as regular 3.5" hard drives) which were running in a server in RAID configuration for about six years.  As best as I can tell, these drives are manufactured in 1996.  Two drives are HP and one is Micropolis.

I ran these drives over-night to wipe them and run surface tests with no failures.  They have not, however, been tested with Amiga equipment.

Just pay for shipping, which in the US should be around $10 give or take, and they're yours.  Let me know ASAP as they're sitting waiting for the recycler to grab them.

If you would be willing to part with just one, AmigaSociety, I sure could use one to replace my 40Mb one in my A2000.

Let me know!

Thanks to all for the replies.  I'm working with everyone who responded in order.  Hang loose and I'll get to you one way or another.

If these are still available, I could really use these in my a4k toaster machine :)

I'm interested but why do I seem to always end up last in line? Bad luck I guess!

There are two 18 Gb up for sale on A**Bay for 25 Euros each + 20 Euros shipping per drive; I can't afford them having gotten four 146 Gb HDD for 25 USD total with free shipping from *Bay :)

Thanks to everyone.  I believe this deal is sealed.
