Note: I thought about posting this in one of the other NEC ND-1300A threads, but since some of those have been hijacked, and this is $2 less after S/H, I decided it merited its own thread. Feel free to lock and copy into another thread if mods disagree.

The going rate seems to be about $110 anyway. Not that this isn't a hot deal, I think it is! Excellent reviews at Newegg.com and here among other places. Anyone want to share their own experiences with this drive? I'm on the verge of getting one

Favorable user comments at the vcdhelp/pricegrabber site.

Just be clear on which version you want. If you're not exactly sure what the difference is between OEM and retail - that means you need the retail version. $125 at mwave.

Note to OP: Link to the old threads at least, eh?

I've been happy with mine. I haven't found any media yet that it didn't like (only about 6 different types tried though). It's been solid so far (3 months or so), but I admittedly don't use it more than a couple of times a week.

Yah, my original thread on this got majorly hijacked. Thanks for the update. Getting pretty hard to resist buying now.
