not bad if you're a Seagate fan. maybe some bing action can bring it down some more.
all this means for me is that the 2tb drives should be getting cheaper soon.
ooof. Almost every other review on that site is from somebody complaining that their drive failed. Kind of scary.
if you're that worried about the drive failing then you need to think long and hard about backing up your critical data. I have someone right now asking me how to get data that can never be replaced off a dead drive, he's learning the hard way that if you can't lose it, don't... You should be able to look at a hard drive the same way as any other piece of hardware that if it breaks you just send it back for RMA or buy another one, not worring if drive A has a 5% failure rate as opposed to drive B that has a 10% failure rate.
Ordered one for the hell of it. Even got another $8.40 off using Bing cashback.
For less than $37 (shipped), how bad can it be? I wouldn't use it as a critical OS drive, but it's really cheap media storage.
Wow, how did you get it for so cheap shipped? Am I missing something about the rebate? Looks like it's mail in?
DON'T FORGET TO USE BING FOR AN ADDTIONAL 12% OFF THE PRE-REBATE PRICE.
I ordered mine, yesterday. Go to bing, search tigerdirect, click through the advertisment at the top of the Bing results page. You'll be asked to enter your Microsoft ID and a capatcha, then you'll be able to shop with Bing cashback.
I got this drive CHEAP! The cashback showed up in my account immediately and will likely be available in ninety days.
BTW, I already have a few of these drives. They are fantastic.
90 days ?
LOL
Hmm... mail-in rebate...
Anybody have any experience with worldwiderebates.com?
I Googled them and there seems to be more than a couple complaints.

heh you think these drives are 10% fail? id say more like 40% within a year fail, and seagate cost me more to rma than WD but if your east coast prob cheaper to rma than WD. I mean there has to be a reason they are trying to give these drives away,
