380414 2005-08-12 04:37:00 Hi am after a Seagate Ultra ATA/100 80 gig HDD.

Problem is it has to be model number ST380023A, which seems to have been replaced by a newer model with the same spec.

If anyone out there knows who might be able to supply or if you have one you would be willing to part with can you let me know. Can look at replacing it with a new HDD of the same spec if you want - which would mean a new warrenty for you.

Thanks in advance.

Sam.

380415 2005-08-12 04:42:00 And why exactly does it have to be the same brand/model/gb? Speedy Gonzales (78)

Am wanting to use the PCB off it as a last ditch effort to recover some data from failed HDD which won't spin.

380417 2005-08-12 04:55:00 Ah ok, Good point and reason.

Just checked my old ones, but theyre Quantum, not seagate.

380418 2005-08-12 05:07:00 Cheers for having a look anyway- Am pretty sure someone out there must have one they won't be too cut up about parting with.

Know of any other forums you'd recomend I post this on?

380419 2005-08-12 05:16:00 Are u in NZ Unit? Or somewhere else?

If in NZ, you could try nz newsgroups. Thru OE or Outlook, thru your ISP.

Like nz.comp, nz.tech, or nz.wanted. If u dont have access to newsgroups, or dont know how to get into them, I can post one for u.

And get back to you.

380420 2005-08-12 05:16:00 Checked the 2 Seagate 80GB HDD's I have here and both different model #'s :(
Will keep an eye open for one. I may have one in an old PC at home.

380422 2005-08-12 07:07:00 Sorry I stand corrected -- I have the 80GB ST380011A model which I am quite happy to supply you with as per your suggested arrangement -- is this close enough in compatability??

Regards
