HITACHI Deskstar HD32000 IDK/7K 2TB????

Post by jedihobbit »

Okay, friend is looking for mass storage and the egg has this unit with free shipping (180) and it has a 30 MIR.

Anyone use one of these? The big concern though is the old system he wants to use is really that OLD!!!

Enermax EG465P-VEFCA 450W
ABIT NF7-S rev2 - Sempron 3000+ w/ Swiftech 462 & Tt Smart Fan
2 x 1024 F1-3200USU2-2GBHS (g. skill) PC3200
Visiontek X1950 Pro XGE - Turtle Beach “Santa Cruz”
ASUS 52X CD-ROM - TDK Indi DVD+880 DVD+RW
80GB Maxtor DiamondMax9 7200 IDE
160GB Maxtor DiamondMax9 7200 IDE

I've noted the primary concern as I've read about the drivers not even want to play with mass strorage devices!
