Re: a modest request

Linux works very well with disc sizes of less than 1g.  There are lots 
of these older discs around and if you want to make a firewall or other 
application which doesn't require lots of disc then these are excellent. 
 If you are planning to use a large server then a new disc is a must. 
As I have said before older discs don't have the checks that modern 
discs have.  There are even modern 20g drives that require you to 
lockout bad sectors.
