My brother really needs a bigger ide HDD for his rig. Right now he has 20gb IDE HDD and its too small for him to install the WOW patches. Something like 40gb or bigger will be fine, just needs to work. Needs to be as cheap as possible as he is only 15 and doesn't have a lot of cash.

Shipping Zip code is 98662

Just needs to be like 40gb or bigger. Brand doesn't matter as long as it works and isn't too noisy.
