I really wasn't looking that hard.
Used hard drives are never going to keep their value. They are mechanical devices with moving parts and a very real 'life' that's impossible to measure on an individual basis.
It's kind of like buying a car but without the ability to inspect it mechanically. Quite a gamble.
Add to that the plummeting prices of new ones and your used 500 gigger external is worth, well ... let's see what offers you get for this. |

If that includes the case for drive, I'd offer 40,000. No case, 20,000. |

If you buy a seagate or another manufacturer with a 5 year warranty then its pretty worth it.
I would always check the warranty status of a used drive. If its good then I would immediately RMA so that I would get a new/refurbed model. |

Out of curiosity - where is a good place to get a terrabyte drive? I was looking to get one but couldn't find an English speaker at technomart. |

I might be interested for 60,000 if it's got a case and in good condition.
Give me an E-mail at [email protected] and we'll discuss. Can't PM yet. |

Not sold.
This will ONLY be shipped!! I'm not in Seoul, nor will I come up to Seoul for 60bucks.
The drive works, but after checking it last night, the HD says 500gigs, but I double check it's properties, and it's showing 370gigs, which is still quite a bit. But not the 500gigs like it promises.
Anyway, it's still up for sale, and thought I would give fair warning to everyone, as I'm not here to rip anyone off..... |

Sorry to the OP to hijack his thread but jeez there spliff.
Those prices are HIGH!
Head over to J-tech at son-in and get them for about 15% LESS than those links.
NOW back to the OP. |

If "j-tech" is in son-in then their prices are listed in these links. This HDD is 86,000 (Seagate SATA2 500G (7200.10/32M)) So if I just blow the time and cash to go to Yong-son...ole "j-tech" is gonna knock 15% off that?
Slow day on Dave's?  |
