91360 2002-10-21 08:59:00 Hi, I am just wondering how cheap I could a 20 Gig hard drive of any brand.

I sent an email to our Local Dealer and this returned.
Universals Business Systems.
20GB Hard Drive 5400rpm $195 inc GST
40GB Hard Drive 5400rpm $230 inc GST
40GB Hard Drive 7200rpm $250 inc GST

Does anyone know of a better deal?

91361 2002-10-21 09:01:00 That's expensive :)

I bought a 7200 40gb for $190-ish a few months ago.

Check out PriceSpy for some good prices :)

91364 2002-10-21 09:16:00 vk_dre - you're a pretty strong supporter of PB Technologies, eh?? Hmmm... personally, they supplied the servers and PCs for our work, and to be perfectly honest, I've had to do most of the maintenance on the system myself...

Can't really say their "support" is of any use... C-Tech PC (htt[://www.ctechpc.com) have always looked after me, and getting to know them I quite often save more on the listed price than others would...

Great bunch of guys... :D

Lo.

91365 2002-10-21 10:32:00 I gaze into my Christal ball.....

One month from now i beleive that it will be impossible to buy such a small drive. There won't be many more specails.

Find one, buy it, or buy a forty now, theyre the same price or near enough to................
