I have seen these drive for less than $175, I am thinking ~$150 with sales, live.com, coupon trickery. Could you just take it apart and have two 2TB for like $75 each? http://www.buy.com/prod/wester...loc/101/208286771.html oops, forgot link

No regrets on computer parts. If you do any price shopping before making a purchase, you did your homework. Pricing is crazy on this stuff. "I remember paying $100 for a 1gig compact flash drive, that was a hot deal for a week" Only lesson I have learned is to wait and keep checking...

I am not in a "huge" rush to get more space, I already filled 1.5tb with mostly backups of dvd and a few songs. I saw a RAID 1 1TB WD My Book something or other. Obviously there were two 1TB drives inside and it was for like $150 or something. I almost bought it figuring there is no reason...

Can you just remove the SATA drive from the enclosure and have a bit more than an OEM drive? Thanks, Steve Totaro

6% back from live.com. Do I pull the trigger or not, I have a $100 target price but this is darn close. I started a new thread because I saw reference to this deal in threads that were hijacked. http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16822152135

Is this dead? I don't see the live 10% anymore.

It seems to be a club where they continue to ship and bill after your initial order.

It says ONE time but if I add six to the cart, the pricing does not increase per unit. I wonder if they will honor that?

Also cars inluded in large corporate "fleets" will often be totalled by the insurance company in order to keep large clients happy. I know a guy that got a full sized Hummer with a salvage title. It would be hard to total a brand new hummer, but this thing just had a small dent and broken...

They just wanted to verify my amex info since shipping was different than billing. Servers should be there to setup at the colo today. I can add ram and stuff later if needed.

Had a voicemail from geeks.com but they just asked that I call them back about the order. I am not sure whether to call or not. I want my servers. Online, the order still shows as "Processing"

Lucky me, I got two just before OSS, better be realtime inventory. They have one listed on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...1215&_trksid=p3907.m29 Shipping is a little higher but still a good deal.

Can I pop this into a Core 2 Duo 1.8ghz Dell Dimension 9200?

$453 now.

Only problem with that is I am not exactly sure how you would file a class action law suit or get the FTC involved in a case where the rebate company is outside of US jurisdiction.
