IDE Hard Drive

Cherry_Cola · 2012-02-11 19:52:05

I'm looking to pick up a cheap new IDE hard drive. Would anyone know the best place to get one? Looking for 160GB-250GB if possible.

Unfortunately I'm not in the UK at the minute so it pretty much rules out Scan or Aria. Aria charge £26 shipping for the first item to the ROI :eek:

Similarily, I've had very bad experiences with elara before and vowed to never use them again.

Most of the UK sites have good deals on them, but the shipping is prohibitively expensive in most cases
