I IMMEDIATELY would go to the Seagate Online Store TODAY while you can still
get 10% off using the code "HOLIDAY2002" and buy at least one of the
biggest, baddest UltraATA drives you can find. Personally, I'd recommend
buying 2 or 4 ATA drives and a SIIG or Promise hardware-RAID controller like
I just did.
