Thanks all, I know *which* ones work, I'm an old hand at this.  I was
just wondering *where* one might find them for cheap.  The usual supects
(hitech cafe, dirtcheapdrives, etc) turned up nothing for a reasonable
price.

Thanks to a fellow lister though, I think I have a nice fast Plextor
coming in :)
