Or they like PC's that lose 80% of value in a year?

I'm got an internal 1TB WD Caviar Green and wondering if it's worth anything or I should should keep it as another storage drive?
 
Brand new R1k +, if someone needs it desperately I reckon you could be mean and get at least R600.00 wich was the cost price a few months ago. +1 for storage I need some but I can wait.
 
Prices have gone through the roof lately. Should get a very decent price for it.

Look on Gumtree for an idea. At least R600 /me thinks
 
What I experience and practice wrt hardware is that once they're 2nd hand, buy and sell them for 40% less then what they were new. Age and warranty also comes into play.
You'll not really get a true reflection of 2nd hand goods on MyBB's Classifieds IMO if you're looking to buy.
Seller's here are always coming along with hefty price tags - from what I've bothered looking at.

Sellers on carbonite forums are always more realistic, in my experience.
Though there's always room for negotiations in private and what not.
 
I've got a 250GB hard drive. Older hard drives are hard to find. One day it will be worth a million. Moohoohahahaahaha :D
