More from the FAQ:

Q. Are cables, power cords, and surge protectors exempt during the sales 
tax holiday period?

A. Yes.

Q. Does a backup battery qualify for the exemption during the sales tax 
holiday period?

A. A battery backup purchased for a personal computer is tax exempt.

I would expect that if the battery is tax exempt, a hard drive would be too.


Here's a bizarre one though, tell me what the definition of a 
workstation is?

Q. If a customer buys a personal computer or other qualified items 
during an exemption period, plus unrelated equipment and supplies, is 
everything tax-free?

A. No, Unrelated equipment and supplies, such as computer furniture, 
workstations, cellular telephones, digital cameras, and other similar 
items are taxable.
