Garrett,

"when" I get my z2 and have you upgrade the drive to z3, do you use the Toshiba automotive grade drives - I found this info on a automotive drive site:

 

Toshiba's sixth-generation 60GB automotive HDD (MK6050GAC) joins Toshiba's existing automotive-grade HDD series that includes both 40GB and 80GB models.

 

 

If not, can you get your hands on them and what would the cost be??

Thanks Garrett!!!

I can not find a website that sells it yet. The 30gb automotive drive costs 2 to 3 times the amount of the MK6034GAX that we use. I would assume that cost on a MK6050GAC will be in the neighborhood of $300. If you find the drive, you can send it to me for upgrading.

 

In the future, if you have a private message for me, please use PM or email. We don't want to clutter the general forums with personal messages :)

 

Thanks,
