I was thinking about buying an 80gigger from Newegg (on sale).

Are they worth it ?

i think they are , i have 3 of them

funny thing is 2 are just sitting here right now not even installed, figured i would use my IBM deathstars that i got back from RMA till they die again.

And now, to top it off...they recently announced a 10,000 rpm IDE drive. Drooool.

ohh ohh ive got a deathstar too in fact thats what prompted me to get the WD. This will hopefully never fail and if it does I will have backed things up on my useless 40 gigs of IBM crappiness after I RMA that.

My IBM Deskstars are still running....even an old 8 giger.
