Yea, I recently threw away some old 14 inch hard drives. I hooked them up and they still worked. I could hear them spin up and heads moving and all. I don't have a computer that connects to it, I just got it some power. I do have some really old drives that are less than 1GB and some that are around 100MBs or so. They still work fine. Not sure what to do with them though. o_O I guess they really made them back then. Dale :-) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
