Newegg has the 73GB version listed for $495. So I'd say, nope. It's fast, it's SCSI, it's high end. You DO NOT want that in your PC.

Why would I NOT want it??? I would love to get a couple in my pc

You've never had high end (for the time) HDs in your system, have you? To get an idea, fire up a dremel tool to max speed, toss it in your case. And enjoy

Ok ok.. besides the noise/vibration (which my case has plenty of already) i see no other negatives but the $$$

Rings in at about 49 dB, a 7200.8 runs 40 dB. It's a logrithmic scale.

Only if your PC is in another room.

LOL, I remember when my dad upgraded his PC from an 80MB harddrive to a 380MB SCSI monster. That capacity was unheard of back then. You could hear that drive across the street.

You'll need a SCSI card. Add more $$$
