Hi guys,

I need to replace my faulty External HD asap, but I'm unsure what make/model I need to get. How much should I expect to pay and where is the best place to look? eBay, maybe? Is there anything I need to know before installing it or will it simply be a case of swapping like for like?

Sorry if this has been covered before...

Thanks for your help in advance.

Cheers,
Peter

literally any common SCSI-2 4GB drive will work.  I bought
four used Seagate Barracuda's for like $20 each or something,
and put them inside a nice white Sun Microsystems external SCSI
drive case with power supply.  Then hooked them up to the
Series III with a cable having a 50-pin high-density SCSI 
connector to Centronics SCSI connector.

they all work great, you can find surplus hard drive places all
over the place using a Google search.

one place that has a lot of old parts is weirdstuff.com

cheers

David
