This guy is going to build a SERVER and can't read the label on the drives he bought??? Something smells here and it's not six's reputation!

=== Never assume ANYTHING ===

Well, I believe that what has scamtron all lathered up is that IF you CAN read the label, then you can READ THE LABEL. It gives you such juicy tidbits as the MODEL NUMBER of the drive. I know, since I own some fairly new Maxtor drives and they ALL have model numbers on them.

Now, follow this: IF you can READ the LABEL and use the Internet, then you can visit Maxtor's web site and READ the specs. Of course, then you have write them down, and that might be your problem. If so, please consider useing this little program included in every copy of Windows. It's called NOTEPAD.EXE and, using it, you just have to TYPE the info into a file, using NOTEPAD.EXE. I assume you can type, since you are posting here.

If any of that seems unclear, let us know and we'll do our best to clarify matters. If all else fails, then just post the model number and WE'LL go look it up.

Have a nice day.

Not a problem. In fact, feel free to save a copy in case you run up against this exact same situation in the future.

What can I say? I woke up on the wrong side of the mouse this morning and the total crap put out by that guy got me at the wrong time. Like we're going to believe that he's 'so busy' that he doesn't have time to look up the specs on the net. S***, if he was really going to use them to build a server, does he really want us to think he doesn't know what he bought? Those things are either (1) Hotter than J-Lo's butt or (2) So freakin' old that they must have been around since the 486 came out and he doesn't want to say so.

Oh, well, nuff said. Let's just ignore him...

=== Never assume ANYTHING ===

I just saw an advertisement froman unnamed computer store that was selling 30 GB MAxtors. COnsider the possibility that he may have bought them. Its not like there are a bunch of older computers up on blocks somewhere, missing their hardrives and hood ornament.

Scamtron likes this sig...

The place that I got the drives Is White Street Computers its a local computer shop. The reason I couldn't get you the serial was due to tha fact I was at work. And I dont bring the drivers everywhere I go.

btw where did I say I didn't have time to get you the serial #???

Wo! The man comes across with (a little) info

=== Never assume ANYTHING ===

Ill trade you a 60 gb for 3 30gb drives....

howdy y'all, sorry for taking so long to get back to you on the drive, but the 30 maxtor was exactly what compdude said it was and he was very quick to ship after he got payment, in fact i bought a 6 gig hd off him and a p3 700 desktop, but that hasnt arrived yet, although it should be here anytime now. all in all a very positive thumbs up! thanks!

im sorry i should have clarified one point, i didnt check the see what rpm the hd was, but it worked flawlessly and i couldnt really give 2 shakes of a rats a** what rpm it was anyway, it was used to build my mother in laws system and she just surfs the web and plays solitare on it anyway...but i get brownie points for it
