    Good luck. my money would be on ebay being the cheapest.
  • Had to buy a new HDD for my IBM 600E about 2 months ago. I spent alomost 9 months searching for a cheap one, and ended up back at the start.....eBay!

    Really is the cheapest. You'll find that the older laptops are the ones that no-one carries spares for. Best looking for tested items on ebay.

    Comparison - I bought a 20Gb HDD (allegedly only took up to 6Gb). Was costing £130+VAT in online shops minimum. Cost £18 delivered on ebay, which I still thought was expensive ...lol....too much time spent on here. Ooh...and it works 110%.

    The reality is that you might think there's cheaper than ebay, but as with my friend from Armagh above, good luck in trying to find them.
