I'm sad NewEgg.com won't let me purchase items with a Canadian credit card. I guess Amazon will keep getting more of my business.

in for one... anyone know who's drive this is?
Seagate's. It's not a repackaged/rebranded drive, but a LAMD controller (like the Neutrons) w/ custom Seagate firmware, and Toshiba MLC. I wouldn't get it for any new portable computer, though, as it does not support HIPM or DIPM, and isn't low-power otherwise (but, I'm talking about a fraction of 1W at idle, here, so no worries for anything plugged in all of the time, nor a powerful notebook where that won't significantly affect battery life).

Thanks, I ordered one earlier this year when it was on sale for $129 and couldn't resist ordering another.

i used canadian cards all the times! thing is newegg.com do not ship to canada usually, they tell you to use newegg.ca but if you have a us address it's different.

I just placed an order for two drives using PayPal (Thanks for the suggestion skull!). We'll see if the order goes through tomorrow and how these drives fare in my systems. :)

, which the same as the Corsair Neutron series.

This drive is supposed to be excellent (at least, for desktop usage), and this is the cheapest I've ever seen it.
Yep it's an awesome drive, Price went back up tho on Amazon. OOS on newegg
