    I have 1x 4.3GB Maxtor (no known bad sectors)
    and 2x 8.44GB Fujitsu drives (again afaik good)

    £6 inc the 4.3
    £8 inc per 8.44

    Only that price due to the weight of the damn things

    If you have anything for trade, lemme know and we might be able to sort something

    I'm after fan controllers, dvds etc

    No bad sectors that I know of, but can test it for you tonight.

    From what I remember, it's a 5400, but again I'll check that for you

    Quick test on the drive has shown no bad sectors... haven't done a full surface scan though...

    If there's any bad sectors, feel free to slap me about a bit

    Drive model: Maxtor 90432D2
