    Looking 4 old non-wk'ing WD hard drives

    Looking for several old, non-working Western Digital hard drives. The old full bay size (1"). They had four disk inside. The condition doesn't matter. If you have some that you replaced with newer half height size I would like to hear from you. Maybe I can help clear some of your storage space.
