Out Of Stock.
Also Maxtor is now considered Crap by most. Seagates are the new hotness.

Umm, no. Storage Review shows the latest Seagate drives to be slower than Raptors, Maxline III, Hitachi 7k250, and a 250MB SATA Caviar.
Comaprison from Storage Review
The only test that the Seagate wins a couple of the Winmark 99 tests, which were highly questionable when they were produced 6 years ago and are certainly useless now. The Seagate comes in last in just about every one of storagereview's own desktop tests. It puts up a reasonable showing in their server tests, but that's probably not what you're buying it for, and it's still not faster than the Hitachi.
Seagates might be quiet, reliable and not slow, but they are most certainly not the fastest.
