I think I've found a good deal on Seagate 9 Gig HD's, but want to know if anyone would like to buy some with me. I have to buy in quantity in order to get this price. Sooo, anyone who wants to get a 9 Gig Seagate (I think it formats out to 8.5 Gigs), email me the price you think is appropriate, and I'll see if it's possible. Special consideration given to quantity buyers as it's easier for me. Jay Goodwin

Well, I think a really good deal would be about $900, but that's a factor of ten cheaper than what other drives are going for. Why don't you tell us the special price?

I believe the Seagate drives I heard about around 2 months ago were going to be about $3500….but that's just what I heard. 🙂

$900! Wow, that's a deal I'd jump on! <BG> Paul

At a Ben Franklin a gig, I think lots of people would jump. But those prices may be true in just a few years.

<g> Especially when those new drives that write DOWN into the substrate of the platter really have an effect.. Paul

Jay, I would think that anything below $3000 would be a good deal. Micropolis is shipping an 8 gig drive for around $4000, mail order. Jonathan
