$163.99 plus Free Shipping today, might be the lowest price Amazon has ever listed:

Perhaps, but was $135 FS just last month from published deal (Buy) on eBay. I always am surprised although I know better: 500GB drive is but 465GB after formatting <sigh>.

Anyone have issues with prepping them in USB docks? Fresh, unformatted drives aren't even recognized by diskpart. Also when restoring from a master image, I'm getting drive geometry errors. Works fine but I haven't dug into it too much yet. No issue on fresh installs on a local machine though.

I was under the impression that ebay links were not allowed here. I could be wrong.

Pretty sweet deal!

I bought one from Ebay - it was a refurb from NewEgg's Ebay store. It works great (100% health), although the Amazon link is showing $162 for me now - might as well pay the $13 extra for a brand new unit.

 

[Dalvinson]

Good price

The ebay deal is dead, but it's now $160 FS with the current email promo from Newegg.

edit - the 480gb Sandisk Ultra II is the same price with its own promo code
