WTB: IDE Hard Drive
I need a new hard drive for my computer. I got the blue screen of death 3 times within the last week. And this last time the computer wont boot up (hard disk read error). So Im looking for a replacement. Its for a Dell D500 Laptop. Its an IDE 2.5". I believe its like a 30GB but Ill take any size. Bigger would be nice. Also CHEAP! LOL.
Let me know what you have

Re: WTB: IDE Hard Drive
Do you know if there is a way to convert it to a SATA? I got a killer deal on one and thought it would fit(didn't realize I had an IDE)

Sure, if you want to turn it into an external drive.  Otherwise it's not practically possible.

Re: WTB: IDE Hard Drive
Thats actually what I did, found a cheap enclosure and want to use it as an external. But it doesn't seem to work. I haven't messed with it too much tho.

Re: WTB: IDE Hard Drive
Actaully you could maybe get a PCI SATA card. But you wouldnt be getting the speed of sata i dont think.

Looks like you get 1.5gb/s May be worth a shot, just remember to get a power connector changer thingy too.
