I used to spend thousands with them - I lost interest in PCs when I work with them all day, and got into cars  ::)

I ended up with a 20GB laptop drive by sticking a 100GB into a PVR, ask Jaime what size HDD his mothers Pace Twin has.

20 or 40g, can't remember.  Not a patch on the 1Tb in my MCE if you want to play mines bigger than yours ;)

20 is standard, put a 100 in and sell the 20 to James

I have an old Dell 600, facotry shipped with XP.

Don't ask me how but I lost the hard drive. And Caddy.

I've got another caddy, but cannot get a drive. Tried ebay - timewasters for the most.

Just wondering, if anyone has a laptop 2.5" HDD I could pur-chase from you? Only needs to be about 10gig or so, it's purely for bathtime forum browsing :y

One more thing you have to do ..Connect the lappy to electrics also ;D ;D

Sorry just a joke :y

Lol, I run it off my 12V inverter, I don't fancy having mains in the bathroom :y

Kev - I may need to get home a bit earlier, if I don't make it, would you pop in the post for me? :) I'll give you whatever you want for it / postage.

Don't suppose you've got anywhere with the Halfrauds device? ::)

From memory I have a couple - either 6G or 20G. You can have one if you want it. I'll just chuck it in the post.

CCL pretty good too for PC bits usually shop there as only 5 mins from home so any probs with stuff just take it back & get it exchanged (never had a prob with em they really top class aftersales service )

Used Ebuyer a lot too, once again never had probs with them either and super fast delivery even with cheapest one !

Used to use CCL a fair bit when I used to build and sell PCs.  Can't remember what it was, but some reason I stopped using them  :-/
