So I decided to sit down and start testing drives today from all the computers we have been breaking down in the past couple months. Here is what I got done today.
On this shelf is 80 sata drives ranging from 40gb to 1tb, 40 DVDRW drives, 100 IDE drives ranging from 40gb to 500gb, about 300 512mb ram sticks, 40 1gb ram sticks and 15 2gb ram sticks.
Here i have 60 IDE drives an 50 or so more DVDRW drives to test yet.
Now I have some more fun to do this week after work and start posting on ebay.
This just goes to show you that there is more value in a computer than just scrap. Ruff Guess right now because i dont want to count every drive and figure it out is about $300 is what I would pay if someone sent me a shipment of just the SATA drives. Who am I kidding BRB going to go do the numbers.
32 80gb sata drives at $2.50 = $88.00
3 100gb sata drives at $4.00 = $12.00
6 160gb sata drives at $4.00 = $24.00
5 200gb sata drives at $7.00 = $35.00
16 250gb sata drives at $7.00 = $112.00
3 320gb sata drives at $7.00 = $21.00
2 500gb sata drives at $10.00 = $20.00
1 1000gb sata drive at $10.00 = $10.00
TOTAL = $322.00 for ruffly 85 LBS worth of hard drives. IF thats not better than scrap value I dont know what is. Back to testing I go.
