    what can i use a WD caviar 2120 for?

    its a caviar 2120 wdac2120-32m has: 872 cyl 35 spt 125.0 MB 3605 RPM 6s From Power-on to Drive Ready. came out of an AMD-386 machine that i am trying to get working (just need a keyboard) and since its getting the minix treatment its getting upgraded to a quantum bigfoot 12.7Gb so... what can i use this old beasty drive for?
    Things I've fixed: anything from semis to crappy Chinese $2 radios, and now an IoT Dildo....

    Excuse me while i do something dangerous


    You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

    Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

            I can't seem to get myself to get rid of these working hard drives:
            1 40MB HDD
            1 230MB HDD
            2 400MB HDDs
            1 730MB HDD
            1 2GB HDD

            Sigh... need to just get rid of them...
