even a 120GB SSD is abrely worth 50 Euro and no HDD comes clsoe to it.

If it is a 75GB HDD then no matter what, it is old. So low capacity HDD's arent build anymore. RPM has then nothing to do nwith the speed as the drive itself uses a low bandwith of IDE or SATA II in the best case.
Most ppl would proberly not even to take it for free.

Useless relic in the age of SSDs.

As for the price tag:
https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Cheetah-15K-5-15KRPM-ST373455SS/dp/B000NA269U

and then take 20 or so off for it being used.
So a used one would only be worth around $30 or so

Wow, up to 135MB/sec data transfer rate.
Even a normal HDD can beat that (easily) these days and offer more than ten times the storage space.
And it would be a standard S-ATA drive and not an SAS drive, which your mainboard most likely does not support as you find it more in server and workstation environments.
