    Looking for 60 GB or larger IDE 2.5" hard drives to fix up some older CF-29 and CF-18 units. Especially interested in used Hitachi or Toshiba from Panasonic models newer than about 2005. Used ones from someone I don't know (e.g. FleaBay) are usually DOA, so I'd appreciate getting some from my trustworthy Toughbook friends here.

    Please PM me with what you have and what you want for it. Quantity buy would be ideal.

    I have some laying around at home, but I honestly cant remember if they have bad sectors or not. I'd give them away if you're interested, I'll have to look at sizes when I get home.
