So i acquired a older pc but it doesnt have a hard drive anyone have budget friendly hard drives like i found one on amazon for $15 for 500 gbs..

Also one of the heat sinks on the motherboard bridges broke off (smaller one) can i replace that individually?

Also i just need new thermal paste so may as well ask for that here as well.

#

Thats what i was looking at btw

If you’re not worried about losing the data on the drive, used is fine
