Pretty good price for these. I have 3 of the 1TBs and love them.

Use the promo code in the item description.

Thank You!

Great deal. I paid this much for 500GB what seems not so long time ago... Now if only I could get a good deal on samsung 2TB, I'm running out of space on one of my PCs.

EDIT: detonator is not working again. Get rid of this crap.

Wow, 1TB prices are really dropping.

Does anyone know if the 3.5" and 2.5" docking stations (Thermaltake BlacX) support 1TB drives?
[Edit] The BlacX does. Just checked the specifications.

I have the Rosewill dock. My 1TB's work fine in it.


edit

I really wish I could use the promo code on EVERY item. I would seriously order 5 of these if the $15 came off of all of them. Might just go 2TB instead.

Is the code limited to 1 per customer? I'm guessing so.

Yes, looks like it, was going to buy two for RAID 1 in my future low-power atom server.

Just paid $79.99 for Seagate 1.5TB last week (July 4th sale- Newegg). The Thermaltake BlacX supports up to 2TB. Got one as a gift from my 2009 Secret Santa.

looks like prices are going to keep dropping until solid state drives take over

 

[frostedflakes]

Solid state drives won't take over anytime soon. For lots of cheap storage, HDD is still king.

Anyway, these are great drives, have one installed in my system right now. 🙂

[Acanthus]

mine arrives today 😀

 

[ZickZJ]

Mine should be Monday, would be here tomorrow if they used Fedex for the free shipper.

Oh well, thx

Installed it and began my massive backup.

Not bad performance for the price either.

Averaged 99MB/s on the 300GB folder copy from my raid array.

The WD 1tb GreenDrive just went on sale for $5 more after coupon, it gives you double the buffer (64mb versus 32mb), free shipping. Not sure if the other specs are better or not.

I have both the WD green and the Samsungs.

Performance is close to the same if I recall. Don't have the numbers on hand right now, but I don't remember noting either as "better" in that respect.

I can say that my Samsungs run on average 5*C cooler than the WD's.
