Not bad! Although for a few more dollars you can actually get a bigger hdd. Try compute the price per GB and then you can tell if you have a good deal or not. At $0.71 per GB this is quite expensive. The sweet spot fot SATA hdd is around $0.52 per GB at the 200 GB size hdd.

IT's pointless to have SATA-II interface for such a small data density HDD. Again I would recommand a larger HDD

Go with a Seagate and get their 5 year warranty!
