Hey

I'm looking to purchase something fairly small just so i can download and install Windows 7. And then maybe have a bit of a play with Linux afterwards. Probably best to get something thats less than 120gb. What do you think is the best option for a low price?

Thanks

Chris

Nova has an 80gig one for around £30, tho i would spend the extra tenner and get a drive with a capacity that would be useful for something afterwards.

Twice the size and only a little bit more expensive (http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?WD-16AAJS).

Just stay away from seagate as they are having a firmware bug at the moment and it can be a pain in the butt.
