that didn't help, I couldn't find one. I'd like to know if anyone else has any other recommendations. The lowest most stores sell is 3.2 GB, even places on the web won't go any lower

I don't want 2 pay more that $60

Computergeeks (http://www.compgeeks.com/cgi-bin/prod_disp.asp?cat=Drives) has a bunch for under $100.

Also you will need a program such as EZ-BIOS if you go over 2gigs due to the BIOS limitaion in 486's. I know if you get a Maxtor or Western digital they offer it on their site for free. I used EZ-BIOS on my 486DX2/66 and had no problems.

Try www.hitechcafe.com (http://www.hitechcafe.com)

They have tons of drives in every size range.

Hope this helps,

I didn't mean that you could just find one there.
You have to post a request. Your drive should be $20- 40 plus shipping depending on size,

They can be expensive because they are hard to find and often required for compatability reasons.
