New they are only about $100, so i'd say around $75 would be reasonable.

I agree that they're worth around $75.

I have two of these in my machine as well. They're actually not bad at all.

Sure there's the newer Seagate 7200.10 line with its fancy NCQ, and there's always the Raptors, but these drives provide surprising bang for your buck.

The WD2500KS is actually a SATA2 drive (backwards compatible with SATA1) and has a 16MB Cache. WD drives typically run cooler than Seagate ones, too.
