Title: Too many hard drives Post by: BTC guy on May 25, 2012, 04:40:15 AM I got this box of hard drives. Most of them are very old. They have not been tested. I doubt they all work. Not really sure what to do with them. Sold AS IS. $5 to ship.

Then I decided to load mining software on them and sell them, so that prospective miners could plug and go. Poof, problem solved. That was back in the day where mining was so profitable you didn't want to miss a day, and the premium I charged on these drives more than made up for itself by allowing miners to get up to speed ASAP.
Nowadays, mining with bootable USB or CD is much more practical, and mining is far less profitable. If I have small drives anymore I just treat them like blank high-capacity floppy disks, sort of disposable. Here, you want that movie/backup/whatever? Take a drive. etc. Just grab yourself one of these (http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/Product.aspx?S=1268&ID=1642) and literally treat the drives as a removable disk.

Those are great, and we use many different brands and models of those HDD docks. I've always found eSATA to be clunky, and USB2.0 is slooow. Make sure to pick up a USB 3.0 dock, and you'll thank me later. Title: Re: Too many hard drives Post by: BTC guy on May 25, 2012, 06:08:58 AM I appreciate the suggestion. Im not really in to IDE. Im gonna toss them if somebody here dont buy em.

You and I have done a deal before. Can I give you 5 BTC for the 4x Maxtor? Is that too low ball?
