Default IDE drive recommendations?

I haven't upgraded my drives in a while. Just wanted to know what everyone is using and where they're getting them. I want some IDE drives to put in Firewire cases. BTW, I'm running one of the newer Mac's with the 133MHz buss.
Thanks!

Seconded.

Don't go any bigger than 120 GB, though, because the ATA 66 or ATA 100 busses can't effectively deal with drives that large.

I replaced my G4's int with a IBM Deskstar 80 gig for $99 at macresq. Highly recommended. do a search of these boards and you'll find it's a proven winner. Be wary of the new high capacity (120 gb+) drives.
