Are you talking about the Maxtor one? It's an okay drive. I was actually looking for a harddrive about that size that had 10k rpms. I probably won't buy for a while, but if you see one like that drop me an e-mail please?

Changin' the subject, are ya? :D
OK, then: CompUSA also has a 60 GB (7200 RPM) Maxtor for $30 cash, no rebate. Kind of small, but dirt cheap.

If you want BIG, check out the 300 GB and 400 GB drives that NewEgg is listing. The price is still a bit high (in $$$ per GB), but that will change.

The thing that I hate about those huge hardrives is that you dont get what you buy...

I bought a 200 GB Western Digital(i believe it was WD...)and when i hooked it up, it was only 127 GB's. I already have a 120, and i dont even see the point of having a 127...

No, you got what you bought. It's just that your computer can't use all 200 GB.

I believe getting an UltraATA/133 card helps to solve this problem, and I don't know what else, but it's a pretty widely documented problem.
