Damn hot for a nice storage drive!

 

[WhoBeDaPlaya]

+1 This drive is no slouch either.

$60 is insane.

 

[TwiceOver]

Works all the way up to the limit of 5!

This is arguably the fastest and most reliable 2TB drive on the market. $60? That's the price of some 500GB drives!!

3 platters, 108MBps avg read, 28c temps, silent. Just don't use it as a boot drive!

Bought 4 along with a 180gb vertex2, now I can finally replace my 1.5 tb 7200.11 and 300 os/74 page velociraptors.

Frack I need to stay away from the hot deals forum... In for 4. 6tb Raid 5, won't need storage space for a while.

 

[VinylxScratches]

What are you using to host that RAID?

What are you using to host that RAID?

Ubuntu Server... Software raid. Good enough for me.

 

[VinylxScratches]

Damn, coupon doesn't work anymore? I tried Credit trex3300 or trex3300...

 

[VinylxScratches]

[ZetaEpyon]

Hell, $80 is a pretty good deal, $60 shipped is insane.
Wish I'd caught this in time.

 

[Exterous]

It's just difficult to buy stuff when you know that it was $20 cheaper just an hour ago. I thought about this deal all morning and didn't bite. I don't need them (I have a WD 1TB Black in the closet). Maybe one day, I'll set up a RAID 1 or RAID 5 storage and backup system. Need GB Ethernet first though!

Eh, there will be more deals like this soon.

Oh, I know. Just pointing out the difficulty in buying an $79.99 drive when it was $59.99 just an hour ago, that's all. I might buy a few if they get down to $49.99 by years end, lol!

 

[Kaido]

Come back, coupon! Come baaaaaaaaaaack!

 

[zoiks]

Got 2 of these last night. Don't have a need for them but these were a good deal..

AAAAACK! I've been buying 2TB HDDs on every price drop. I suppose it is a good thing that I didn't see this in time, or I'd be buying 5. I've got a number of 1.5TB drives that I wouldn't mind replacing. Some of them are Seagate 7200.11 and while I haven't had problems with them in particular (I firmware updated ones that were "affected") I wouldn't mind bigger/quieter/cooler/less power for pure data drives.

Hmmm, then again I'm having particular bad luck with HDDs right about now. Just in the past week I've had two VelociRaptors die (out of 4 I own) and one ancient Seagate 80GB that is developing bad sectors.

They must be dieing out of platter envy.
