For 250 $ I could get a new 10GB (IDE-2) drive here! You need to check
prices better, I just checked with one store and I tend to find things
cheaper in others when looking around in just a few of them.
600$ would get me a 25GB HD, but could you imagine the slack?
Explanation of slack:
Slack is the amount of HD space that is never used since the files always
use a minimum amount of memmory when saved. I splitted my 6.5GB HD into
500MB partitions to reduce the slack.
