Mark Wolfe Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 FREE PRIORITY MAIL SHIPPING IN USA These are practically brand new blank, unformatted hard drives. The only reason I can't use them is because they can not be "locked" which is only useful for xbox hd upgrades, otherwise these are perfect for cheap extra storage on your PC, external usb enclosure, or Phat PS2. these are empty, 250GB IDE [not SATA] Hard Drives in Sealed Anti-Static Bags. $18ea Shipped FREE anywhere in the USA. Good for Mac, PC, Linux, etc BTW: Amazon.com has super cheap deals on IDE USB Enclosures for around $12 I have 8 of them for sale, I take PayPal "GIFT" to avoid paypal fees, check my AA feedback if trust is an issue, I would do a cut in price if you ordered more than one but message me with your zip code and how many you want to see what kind of discount I can offer pictures of actual drive below. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wolfe Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 lowered the price for AA folks, $20 shipped in u.s.a. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Whatever you feel about Maxtor consumer level products I have not personally seen these models in computer repair shops. If your computer needs an easy upgrade or has an extra IDE channel free there's no reason not to pounce. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wolfe Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 I too have used a lot of Maxtor drives in my xbox upgrade service and never had a problem, this type for whatever reason does not have the security feature enabled but they are sturdy, work-horse drives and at $20 they are a steal edit: someone asked if they were "new", they are refurbs and in excellent condition, I guarantee them for 30m days. you won't find a better price I don't think 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Damn I would buy them if I lived in USA for that amount ! Highly recommend this great seller folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandor Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 would these work in a ps2 with the HDD interface? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wolfe Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 would these work in a ps2 with the HDD interface? Indeed they would, my understanding of HDAdvance which is one of the apps used to play PS2 games from HD is that it only see 200GB of space, but it will work, also sell the memcard exploit and the HDD interface adaptor for the Phat PS2 as a kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please send me details for payment of one HDD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wolfe Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 I started with ten and only have a few left... get 'em while they last, absolute rock bottom price, just can't be used in an xbox unless you TSOP flash it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parklane67 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 DO YOU STILL HAVE MORE HARD DRIVES? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wolfe Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 sorry these are long gone, they have them on ebay all the time though, they are NOT good for xbox upgrades, but just about anything else you'd want them for. they are unable to "lock". I used one on a PS2, also in a drive enclosure for a USB to soft modded Wii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 There's enough gotchas in the process that even if you DID know how to get a hard drive accepted by your XBOX you'd want Mark to install it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wolfe Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 hehe, thanks dude,. Mike could do it with his TSOP mod... which I hope to learn how to do one day soon. TSOP mod does not require the drive to be locked, but at the time i bought a batch of those damn maxtor drives. I gotta say I used to think maxtor was really good quality but I have had more failures with them than any other brand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
