What size? What interface? I
may have a 1TB or 2TB SATA drive that I preemptively replaced on my main PC. The original drive was working just fine, but I replaced the secondary drive at the same time I replaced the failed primary SSD.

Sorry, dude. I don't have any 2.5" drives. Just the one 3.5" and an NVMe (1TB) that hasn't been tested.

I would be surprised if you had a 2.5" drive in a desktop, but I guess if you installed it, you would know better than I. ;)
For under $15.00 you can get an adapter to adapt an NVMe drive to a 2.5" SATA frame, IIRC.

I'm not sure what you are saying there! How about not using "texting" shorthand please? I have an extremely difficult time reading that stuff, sometimes.
Are you saying that you have a 1TB drive? or do you still need a drive?

500GB SSD is boxed, addressed and ready to go. We are leaving in about an hour, and will stop at the Post Office on the way out. Will PM the tracking number to you then.
Cool thanks. What i owe ya?

Nothing. If I just send something, or offer something, without discussing price/cost, then that item is yours, free. If I need/want money, that cost will be agreed BEFORE I send it (like the stuff in the "sale/trade" sub-board.) This one was packaged up before we talked about price; thus it is free to you.
PM sent.

I LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER!
As soon as I saw the Colonel, I thought that same line. :D
It's nice to be able to help friends.

Ok, thanks. I always gotta check, could be money or even something you'd need/want. Anycase it's only fair.

Agreed. That's what I was thinking after seeing your message earlier (#11 (https://savagechats.com/index.php?msg=1584)).

Glad to hear that, my friend.
Ironically, I have a couple of extra 2.5" drives from my old laptop now. I believe they're both SATA. Just collecting dust, at the moment.

I also have some drives. I believe that I have about a dozen SATA, and (at least) one IDE drive. They range from a few dozen MB to nearly a GB.
Mine however are inside a plastic drawer unit, so no dust on them. 8) ;D

Mine are available to any member who should need them.
