Because of mergers, acquisitions and vendors leaving the market right now, there are some pretty amazing SCSI HD deals around. I picked a new IBM 36.7 GB, 10K HD for $99.00 from Surplus Computers. They are new, the IBM stickers have been removed, but they do carry a 90 day warranty. Just the ticket for a loyal 9600 now doing server duty. Less chancy than an eBay buy but still a good deal. They bought the entire west coast HD inventory from IBM so they wont run out soon. I've also seen some real low prices on Quantum HD's that Maxtor dumped after they bought Quantum.
