140 pounds according to the manual.  A couple of years ago when I was
given 3, I rang a friend and told him I was fitting a couple of hard
disks to my computer and needed someone to hold them in place.  His
mental picture, of course, was of a 3 1/2" modern hard drive.  His face
was well worth seeing when he saw the drives ;-)
