prostuff1 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Hello All, I am looking for low capactiy, 250GB and under, SATA drives. With all the burn in and testing I do when building servers I have a tendency to preclear drives to death. Not looking to spend a whole lot per drive, and if anyone is willing to donate the drives I will cover all shipping and throw in a little extra for your time and effort. Probably looking to get a dozen drives in all. I just killed off half a dozen recently so am looking to replenish the supply. Drop me a PM or reply here if you have some drives for sale or are willing to donate! Thanks Quote Link to comment
SSD Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 It is easy to create an HPA on your disks and reduce their size to something small. I had 3 320G drives reduced to 20G each for testing. Worked great! Quote Link to comment

garycase Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 There are quite a few lots of 5-20 SATA drives listed on ebay ... some at very attractive prices ($20-25). I'd take a look and bid on a few. Quote Link to comment
