Cheap sata 500GB hard drives at Newegg. $149.99 shipped each.

[Bad Dude]

3 drives involved with more than a year warranty on each.

1) Maxtor Maxline Pro. 5 year limited warranty. Unfortunately this one jumped up to $169.99.

2) Samsung SpinPoint T Series. This one is only 3 year limited warranty.

If anyone got more deals with the same price range, please feel free to add it.

I am waiting for my Sony credit card to buy one of these.

Or you can do this one: Buy a Seagate 500GB for $209.99 and get a 250GB free. One of Newegg's Combo deals here:

250gb for $60 more... where have I seen this deal before except the get one free was the OP

 

[ZYFER]

no, it is a free, different models, different prices. Probably seen that deal before, Newegg seems to have it on and off.

I ordered 2 Maxtors and ended up cancelling b/c they might not be back ward compatible to 1.5 SATA.

No jumpers on those?

There is a jumper but the reviewers are saying that it does not work and even Maxtor can't solve the issue.
Also performance is not as good as Seagates.

are they quiet?

 

[Cable God]

Pretty much. I really can't hear them unless I put my ear within inches of them then it is still very quiet.

 

[allisolm]

Darn. The Maxtor Maxline Pro went to $169.99.
