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.

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.

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