Ok, Im looking for a 10 GB IBM Travelstar harddrive. It needs to be working as far as the reader arm goes and such…if the circuit board doesnt work thats fine. Im gonna play frankenstien on it and try and put the platters from one drive (same make/model) into the new drive so i can get the data off of the harddrive i have that is messed up (the reader arm is busted)

If anyone can help me out send me an email (hitchaepi @ gmail dot com) its also in my profile. I know there are some on ebay but id prefer not to spend what their asking since im using it for parts and have a good chance of just ruining the drive. also $10+ to ship a drive that cant weigh more than 3 pounds is a little steep (should be able to ups ground that accross country for about $6)

I am willing to pay a reasonable price for the drive (but will of course accept freebies ). I could also send you a few of the various edits/transfers i have for ‘payment’ if you’d like.

thanks
