$89.99

Seagate Barracuda 1.5TB Serial ATA/300, 32MB Buffer
Retail Boxed Hard Drive.-ST315005N4A1AS-RK

This is 5900RPM drive but is as good as the 7200ARPM. Different platter configuration. This is a Retail box with a 5 year warranty. Offer Expires 10/22/09

I price matched it at Best Buy ($139.99), and walked out with 2 at $89.99 each plus got the Best Buy Rewards for the purchase. Installed 1 already, was easy. Then, just formatted it and partitioned it with the software that comes with it. Software looks like it has lots of features too.

I have one as a storage drive along with the 7200 version as the boot drive. The 5400 "Green" test about 20% slower.

Sorry, but no products were found. At least I got in on the 79.99 deal a few weeks back, but this is better imho since this is retail.

A friend bought 2 of these and they are both starting to die. Relocating sectors and popping up smart warnings.
