Hey all. I may still be a newbie but I've been lurking for awhile now.
Anyways, a week ago my neighbor tossed out 4 computers, 3 keyboards, and 2 monitors. Naturally, I picked them up. My friend and I looked over everything, and everything works except: 1) one internal 3.5" floppy doesn't work, and 2) to protect data *cough pornsite cough* they physically took a drill to all the hard disk drives.
Reviewing the systems, they're all DOS-Win95 machines, with the fastest machine being a 433 Celeron, and the slowest being a freakin IBM 486! I figure I could install 2000 or XP/Pro on the fastest one, provided I find hard drives. The thing is that in my search for hard drives I'm only finding super-high capacity drives. On my PIII 650 I have a 40GB and I've barely used half of that.
So I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations for correct size hard drives, and where to get them. Any help, tips, etc would be appreciated!
(BTW I've got vague plans of turning one of the older machines into an aquarium
)
