Anybody have a few 500mb/2gb IDE drives they dont need? I have a 386 and 486 I want to experiment with older OS's (Desqview/x, Os/2 2 3, DOS/win 3.11, etc) and could use a few old drives. I figured somebody might have a few drives they havnt bothered to throw away yet. Willing to pay USPS shipping. Located in Ohio, USA. Thanks >> Stay informed about: Old drives
