400gb Seagate sata for $170 no rebates

Check it out, it's from Seagate's Nearline series. Not sure how different this is from a normal drive, but does explain the odd warranty.

What's it mean for warranty... 90 days up to 2 year? Is 90 the warranty for the surplus computers and 2 year for seagate?

The same oem drive at newegg has 5 years.. so not sure if it's because of oem.. it is also over $100 more at newegg though 🙂 so this is a good deal.. I think I may purchase 1 or 2 of these.
 
Wish I had some extra cash!
Sux....I'm getting $300 in stumps ground outta my back yard. O-joy!
 
sounds like a fun hd to backup when it crashes and its full,i cant imagine making a 400gig ghost image 🙂

Despite this stellar performance, however, WD cautions against using the RE2 in a desktop system. The drive's TLER feature expects to be paired with a RAID controller. In the event of an unlikely but possible error situation, the RE2 may not make every attempt to recover when operating on a regular controller as a standard SATA drive would..

That is referring to a WD drive. This is a Seagate.
