Hello,
So my dads home pc is running an ancient IDE 80GB hd that only has 18gb left and takes damn near 8 minutes to boot up windows XP. The rest of the system isn't bad either so the hd is definitely bottle-necking the system.

Looking for a cheap lowish capacity (120-160) Hd that hopefully spins at 7200 for around 20$.
:rockout: Thanks TPU

I think I have a 160 GB drive I could let go for $25 shipped.

Capacity is also an issue and I plan on cloning the old drive, so thanks for the offer on the 80gb but I need a little larger.

So, just to be clear, you will not accept any IDE drive, right?

I definitely would prefer Sata. Ide cable takes up so much space in his little case!
