I hereby nominate this Deal as the best deal so far in 2007. This is the lowest price around by far even with tax and shipping. My total price works out to $176.49 per drive on a drive that's selling for $229 at ZipZoomFly Too bad the drives aren't available in any stores near me for pick up.
So very, very hot.
Edit When I went to checkout, BB recalculated the sales tax and my total cost per drive rose to $191.71. Still a good deal, but not as good as I thought. Should we hold it against BB for charging sales tax while other internet retailers should but don't? The ethics are debatable but Isquared has the Raptor X for $214 with only $5.50 shipping and no tax. BB still saves you $27.29. A very good deal, but not as good as I thought. A great deal if you can save the shipping charges with in-store pickup.

I believe a store must charge sales tax for online purchases to a state if there is a retail store physically in that state.

Wow really tempted. They also have 50 off a WD HDD if you get Windows Vista.
With Vista Ultimate Upgrade + Raptor, the total comes to 410.38 for local pickup. Should I bite?

Bought a 75 gig on the $119 deal. Haven't opened it yet so I think I will swap for one of these.
