    Looking for specific Western Digital 120 gig IDE drive.

    Just throwing this out there for anyone. I have a customer looking for a specific drive Western Digital Caviar WD1200-00DUA0

    It has to be that very specific one, you can see this number next to "MDL:" on the drive label. If you have a working one, you can put it up on ebay, enable global shipping option, and this guy will go buy it.

    Thanks everyone.

    If you still have those IDE drives, talk with me before you ship your next box out. I'm doing some vintage stuff, so I can use a few. I don't want to advertise it too much or I know I'll get a gaylord of the things outside my door. I don't do that much vintage fun

    I thought the same thing a couple years ago when I scrapped them as fast as I could. Ah well, live and learn, right?

    Very true. Ive scrapped a few things that I've later learned could have been a pretty penny had I sold. Specifically one I remember, a really nice condition old old apple computer with monitor, keyboard, mouse, everything. Ive since seen the same model/set of items for something around $600ish on ebay and being sold at that price .... anything apple I check before scrapping now, anything old I check... even old keyboard and mice. Ive sold old ibm model M keyboards for ~$100 that about a year ago I would have just sent to shred pile. I check a lot more now and also have a lot better sense of things that sell really well.
