Santa can drop an IBM 60 GXP 7200 rpm 40 gig drive for about
$120.00 and you will be very happy with it

I must agree, I've been doing a lot of reading and the 60gxp seems the best choise for an ata drive. You should be able to locate an OEM 40gb drive for a little over 100 dollars u.s. It's performance is top of the line and it's a great price.

Ditto on those IBM drives.

well if price doesnt matter and if they are out yet get the ibm 120gxp drive. about $250, lol
ohhh shiny glass platters :)
the 60gxp is a good choice if you dont need that much space, i needed more than 40gb so i went with the 75gxp, but those are a kind of hit and miss drive, half work and half dont, lol. i got one of he good 50% ones :)
but as with any ibm drive, COOL IT
these things run really hot. mine runs warmer than my cpu even with a 2 fan hdd cooler on it, lol.
