i just checked my cc and the $84.84 credit showed up sometime today

Had my order cancelled b/c the nearest warehouse was OOS. I called back and the CSR put in a new order to a slightly farther warehouse. She also noted that the an $80+ credit will be applied to my CC.

Received my credit today. The MIR is sent off! Sweet deal for the year!

Shouldn't you post this at the FS/FT forum?

Anyway, I can let mine go for $5.

Just got my rebate validation confirmation from Maxtor today!!!! It says my $30 rebate is valid and will be in the mail within 30 days

I haven't got mine yet. It still says it's awaiting my paperwork. Hopefully they'll get it soon

 

[dabuddha]

Anyone else have any luck with their rebates? Mine still says they're awaiting my paperwork even though I mailed it off awhile back now

Also got the email a week ago. I'm pretty confident the rebates will be fulfilled even with the price reflecting the huge discount.

literally just got my email confirmation for the rebate

Finally got my e-mail confirmation of eligibility for the $30 rebate on this deal. Was sort of beginning to wonder about it. So if I get the rebate $34 for this drive has to rank as one of my best ever net deals. BTW- Spent a $5 off $5 purchase at Staples today by asking about a Rewards card when I bought this. The amusing thing is that when attempting to purchase a 120 GB Maxtor along with a few other items while I was at one of their stores I was turned down when I tried to use an internet savings code using their computer kiosk. I let them put everything back on the shelf. A few days later this drive was substituted and I called in and ordered one. Justice served I guess.

I didn't get an email about my rebate but it shows my rebate was accepted online. Very sweet!

Staple's "rebate center" says my rebate's cool.

Lovin' the new drive... using it with Pinnacle's Clean Plus to convert my vinyl collection.

Is it just me or are these drives a little on the noisy side? The drive is louder than my old maxtor 80gb.

 

[magis123]

Noisy? I find these to be MUCH quieter than the pair of Western Digital JB drives I had in there ... you want to talk about noisy, I couldn't leave the computer on in the office over night and expect to get any sleep because they whined that much ...
