Not really what you're asking, but I see the 120GB and 80GB Western Digital and Hitachi 7200 RPM drives with 8MB buffers on sale at
Fry's Electronics for $48 and $58 ever other week. Might save you some headaches for a few $ more. You have to send in a rebate
coupon, but they run the same add every two weeks.

Subject: [SLE] 3600 RPM Drive Too Slow?


I have found a source of cheap ($20.) 120GB 3600RPM HDD's.

Other than needing to be patient using one in a backup
role should I anticipate any problems with SuSE 9 or 9.1?

My concern is potential time-outs or the like.
