40 gb
18 months old maybe less.
Used very little, mainly as online storage actual usage probably equates to
5 or 6 months.
£50 can post for a bit extra.

I paid £106 for it new, having said that I did get a full refund.
I now have 40,80 & 120 gb in one pc and 40 & 60 in the other I am still
short on space though.
Any thoughts on DVD RW drives?
Oh BTW I almost made a start on that list but have been too lazy.

DVD RW drives seem to be popular at the moment and the Pioneer ones the
weapon of choice at present. Personally I'll wait till they get better and
speed up as with CDRW drives. My first CDRW drive cost me £185.00 and burn't
at 4x the one I use now was less than £50 and burns at 40x. And with CD-r
media costing around 20p each I see no need to use a DVD RW drive yet.
>Oh BTW I almost made a start on that list but have been too lazy.
No probs but you will need an update of mine as there's a few more on it.

The different formats (DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/+RW, DVD-RAM) are not all compatible.
Start with this article by PowerDVD:
http://www.gocyberlink.com/english/articles/recordable_dvd_article.jsp#bestbuy
Just saw a DVD+R/+RW (2.6X DVD/R, 12X DVD, 12X CD/R, 8X RW, 32X CD) for $229
US after rebate this weekend. Prices are coming down.

What is the fastest speed available? What does it mean in real terms? The
figures I have seen seem so pitifully slow I have drawn the conclusion that
I don't understand something.

4x2xSomething. I also got about £40 worth of disks with it gratis (20 IIRC)

The one I use now was £60 but I got it for nothing too. Its only a 24 speed
but I am not complaining.
I did buy a 12 speed plextor for £160 between the two though.

I am looking at it from the convenience point of view, I have several AVI's
that are too big to fit onto one CD.

2x is what I had read but surely it should be a lot faster.
30 mins to write a 4.7 gb disk isn't that bad I suppose, certainly faster
than swapping CD's.
Still I think there is another technology on the horizon and what with all
the incompatibility (reeefer to relic) I guess its still worth waiting.
