I've looked around, seems like the best deal I can find is about $125 for 40G. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places...

Suppose I had (roughly) $100+- $25 to spend on adding space to my empeg. What's my best deal? Anyone selling used 40's cheaply?

Any particular brands to stay away from? I've had exactly NO problems with my empeg and don't want to create any. Whatever shipped in it works great, even at very low temps. (Riocar Mk2a, 10G)

Thanks for any input.

Alternatively... I put a WTB post in the For Sale Forum and picked up 2 30 GB drives for $20 a piece... With so many guys upgrading to 80 GB drives its easier to pick up a used drive that's already set up to be used on an empeg.

Hey, great idea. I will post in the WTB forum. If anyone here reading this has any 20+ gig drives lying around, email me.

Thanks!
