Seagate Atlas 10K III 36.7 GB SCSI Ultra320 Hard Drive

I bought this drive used from kastegir for $5 plus shipping, about $11 total. It was stated removed working. It arrived and I low level formatted it using the scsi internal controller. Works great, I love it. Quieter than the fans in same machine. Using it with a 68 to 80 pin adapter, less than $5, from eBay seller ecomonster. This drive seems cooler than the original Compaq SCSI drive. I have about 25 GB free after XP, updates, Open Office and web browsers. With that room, no antivirus, gateway or monitors; this computer boots, runs and shutdowns quick and flawless.

Two things I did not like about this purchase. One was shipping. USPS took over a week to ship the drive from one Chicago address to another as priority mail. More than one drive was offered at time of sale. I have an open bay, I wish I had bought a second drive.
