WTB/WTTF: mATX nForce2 board & 40GB Maxtor D740X

**Doctor Feelgood**

Just as the title says...

I want a nForce2 mATX motherboard to drop into this box I have with a XP2200+ and 256meg PC3000...

And, I want another 40GB Maxtor D740X 7200RPM ATA-133 drive to match my current one on a RAID 0 array.

Paypal funds available, or trades...

I have:

1. A 16 meg PCI vga card with passive heatsink. Pretty sure its a TNT chipset, works fine.

2. Two identical ATA-66 10GB Western Digital hard drives, both work fine.

3. Two identical, complete Packard Bell Pentium I 120MHz systems... 80 Megs memory, 1 Gig hard drives, video, lan, modem, sound, cd-rom, floppy in desktop style cases. With Win98SE installed. Fully functional... $30 US, each plus shipping or local pickup.

4. Complete system with Linux Mandrake 9.1 installed. Has a PC Chips motherboard with onboard 4 channel sound, 10/100 lan, 8mb or 16 mb shared agp video, 56k modem, usb, 1 pci slot, 1 isa slot, 3 sdram slots. Shown here: LINK

Also has:

AMD K6-2 450 cpu with Duron 1000 style heatsink installed
256 MB (2x128) Tonicom Tiny BGA PC-166 SDRAM
15GB ATA-66 5400 RPM IBM Deskstar
1.44" Floppy
2x (or maybe 4x) cd-rom
250W ATX PSU
Beige mini-tower case

All setup and ready to go... Works great, and all drivers were found and installed in Mandrake 9.1. $100 US, plus shipping - or local pick-up... Pickup I'll throw in the keyboard and Logitech scroll mouse.

Anyone?!? Anyone?!?

These have proved harder to get than I thought!! I can also use a Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 8 instead of the D740X... Looking at a few on Ebay now...
