No, but I had no big problem to buy a E7K100 locally
in Austria a few months ago - I just used the local
price-finding service http://www.geizhals.at (german
speaking - I don't know of similar english-speaking
service). There are many stores in Germany and Austria
that seem to have it available - maybe some of them
can deliver internationally.


BTW. beware of heat - do not attempt to use a 7200 rpm
disc in a soekris box without additional cooling.
