Please don't take this personal rasputinj but I wouldn't touch this deal with a ten foot pole. The AR price is warm but when you start to add on TD's overpriced s&h and then then consider TD's reputation for handling rebates... well, there a better alternatives to put it mildly.

This is not the $99 AR deal. This is a $99 no rebate BUT it is an IDE drive, not SATA. Linky

anyone know who the rebate is with?

Doesn't look like a rebate is needed (see link above provided by motoxpress) but the warranty is only 1 year (you can buy another year from TD for $14 for a total of 2 years). The short warranty kills it for me. I've had several drives flake out on me a few months after their warranty expired recently. 5 years seems like a reasonable life span for a hard drive.

Outpost has recently has had 200GB Seagate drives for $110 twice in the past few months. They offer a 5 year warranty and $40 rebate. Right now they have the 160GB for $100 with a $40 rebate.

They'll probably get another batch of 200s if you wait although rumor has it that some manufacturers are phasing out PATA drives.
