I received a message indicating that the prices for the hard disks that are
sold with the "WEDGE" are in CANADIAN DOLLARS.  I did not see anything 
indicating that in the original message, so I flamed :-).  If it is indeed
the case that the prices are in canadian dollars, then they approach the ones
from CMO (Computer Mail Order).  On the other hand, I just found much
better prices in the latest PC Week, that I bought a disk. I got

40 MB Seagate ST-251 39ms	for $389 + $5 shipping (no CC surcharges) 

from Soft Warehouse at 1-800-451-SOFT. They are located at:

Soft Warehouse
15160 Marsh Lane
Dallas, TX 75244

The also have the following:

20 MB Seagate ST-225 $269 (includes thow away PC controller)
30 MB Seagate ST-238 $289 (same as above, but you get 10 MB for $20!!)

40 MB Miniscribe 3650 $375 (with PC controller)
70 MB Miniscribe      $799 (no controller, not listed as 1/2 height)

If you don't want the controller, you might get a few dollars off the
above prices too, but don't quote me on that :-)

As usual, I have no connection with Soft Warehouse, except that I shelled my
money with them.
