Quantum 10GB ATA66 Drive for $50 at pcliquidator

[Beldar]

PC Liquidator has Quantum 10GB Hard Drives that appear to have been pulled from Compaqs. They have them in the store for $54 (I bought 2) and on the web for $50.

I am not crazy about the 30 day warranty, but these drives have a pretty good rating for reliability.

At 50 bucks its a great deal!

Sounded like a good deal until you said they were pulled out of Compaq's

I was going to buy it to replace the Quantum harddrive that went bad in my parents' Compaq (1 yr old)

my $.02 - this deal sucks ass

I disagree!

These drives are great! I have two of them in my Tivo, although they are 20GB, but the same model/series.

I read all about them before I put them in my tivo and they were the most recommended drives because of thier reliabity.

I think that this is a great deal!

That is a nice price. See the 128mb of PC100 for $15.99 at pcliquidator too! Also 49 cent cd<->sound card cables. Sweet stuff. Now if only they had 30gb pulls of the same drive .

The funny this is, they had 40GB drives like this too!

About 2 weeks ago, I was in the store and they had some pulled 40GB drives for $99. I bought one and it is running in my server just fine

They don't put all of thier stuff on the web, they put it in the store first for some reason.

Hello, everyone~

Is it anyway to pricematch to some place else like staples? or CompUSA?

Cheaper?

thanks,

MullySculder: You can't price match a refurb or pulled item. I doubt anybody would PM a site like PC-Liqudator even if it was an item they claimed was new in retail box. The name of the site alone is enough to nix any chance of a PM.
