That's a steal

stinger608 · Dec 13, 2012, 10:28 PM

Not bad. The Egg had the 500gb drives for the same price a couple of weeks ago though.

GAH ... 1 per customer. Luckily I have a business account with them too.

Is this the RAID version? I've got 2x HLFS and I could use some more room on the RAID0 they're on.

This is a better deal IMO: http://www.amazon.com/Velociraptor-W...IY?ref=prid-20

Or, if you live in Wa state, here's how to get same price with free shipping and no tax: http://www.buy.com/prod/230648604.html

Both are authorized WD etailers btw.
