Our take
As a vintage computer enthusiast, this 1980s DP Dell external hard drive, complete with connecting cables, certainly catches the eye. The "excellent" condition and tested status are crucial for any vintage electronic piece, offering confidence in its integrity. Being a SCSI interface drive further cements its place in computing history, though it means you'll need compatible vintage hardware to use it. While the price is reflective of its collectible nature, it's not a practical storage solution for contemporary needs. This is clearly for display or integration into a period-correct setup, not for daily use.
