Need space

[ScottyB]

I really need some space for my computer and I can get a WD 40gig from the store for $100 plus a free cd rom drive. Is this too expensive. I have a couple of weeks of school left, my 60 gig is about full and I have already burned 30 cdrs. I am trying to get as much stuff as I can before I go back on my 56K modem line. I went to pricegrabber.com and 40 gigs WDs were around $80 but I could get a 60 gig for like %110. Is this too much of a rip off to get a 40 gig for $100? I am leaving in about 15-20 minutes so please respond.
