I'm throwing the price of 140,000 won out there but that's not completely firm.

I bought this back in April hoping to use it with my Mac but my computer could only read it not write to it for some reason. If you have a windows based computer it'll work fine. It can be used as an internal drive or you can pick up an enclosure for it at Yongsan for about 25,000 won or so and use it as a nice external drive.

The drive has about 10 episodes of lost written to it and that was it. I was just trying to get it to work with my iBook but no go.

There nothing about a Mac that would prevent a properly installed Seagate drive from working in an external case--I have two.

Some things to consider. Is it an I-EDE or S-ATA drive? Did you set it for master or slave? Is the drive, enclosure or computer defective?

In any case, the price is kind of "out there".

The current low price for a new one is 102,000 won.

Also, Seagate has released a new and improved 7200.9 version with a 16 mb cache for about the same price....

How much are you willing to let it go for?

I am interested, but for what your asking i would just buy the one for 101,000 of the net..

I'm just speculating here but it sounds like the drive may be formatted with the NTFS file system (an indexed file system used under winxp). If you purchased the drive already formatted there's a good chance that's your problem (by the sounds of it someone must have copied the lost episodes to the disc originally). Reformat as either HFS+ (or even FAT32) and you should be able to write to the drive.
