FREE : You want to BYO Spinner from a WD hard drive motor ?
« on: April 20, 2006, 09:47:17 am »
I was gonna post this in the FREE section but some of you might not see this.
I am now cleaning up my stash of working WD Hard drives that has the right motor/spinner. This varies from GB to MB in sizes. I will be offering this motor/spinner for FREE w/ a $5.00 S/H only for USA. At this moment as am typing this, I have 4 available. I will update the amount once I finish cleaning and checking the motor/spinner part by taking that PCB board out.
Once I have receive the Shipping/Handling fee, I will then take the drive APART and take the motor out for shipping. One per BYOAC user plz.

BTW, like many that have ordered from me before, I only accept Money order or check.  Thnx.

*edit* update

I have a total of 10. PM if interested.

These work very well and have great weight.  I built one for my 2nd cp and it does the trick for a fraction of the cost of other spinners...

Do you still sell these already assembled?  I saw an old post where you were selling them already made.

What will it be PS2 or Serial ?

I could use one already made as well
Let me know if you still have some.
USB or  PS2 does not matter.

Thanks, Alex
