Well, it's not quite the bullsh!t meter, but corpsys/diskdepot is now
selling the MXF3364LC Fujitsu half height 36GB disks for $80 each with 90
day warranty, in five packs on ebay. As of last weekend they were still
$129 qty 5 in their store in Sunnyvale.

Shipping's very fair ($20) and they're nice drives. I used a few in some
systems I built for coworkers earlier this year. Might have to get another
box for one of my projects. Yum.

No connection, just a satisfied customer.
