Seagate 3TB Internal Hard Drive for $159.99 + free shipping
Seagate SV35.5 ST3000VX000 3TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Sorry, but I'm failing to see the deal here. I've posted 3TB 7200RPM Seagate internal drives on here for well under $140. I must be missing something?
@firebirdude: Perhaps the others were 5400-5900 RPM? This one is 7200 so it does at least have that going for it. I do agree that the price seems a bit high though, even if Newegg says it's on sale. I don't hate Seagate, but I am fully aware that they've had some problems in the past. I don't think that I would go for a Seagate drive at this price.
2 year standard warranty for anyone who is asking.
This is tempting, but I just bought two 2TB hard drives last month, and I'm all out of space in my case as well as ports on my SATA controller.
This same drive can apparently be found at NCIX for $130

@firebirdude: I don't really see the deal here either. 3TB drives are dropping and this is a decent price, but 7200 rpm doesn't make THAT much of a difference.
Good to see the drives going down in price though!
@nanovox: NAS enclosure :D . That's what I am starting to do.
This one is $149.99...

@hobbitss: 1yr warranty vs 2. I like 3 yr min as indication of man's expectations.
@hackman2007: @jackofallgames42: Actually if you'll click on my name and view my deals, you'll see a couple 3TB 7200RPM Seagates I've posted well under $140...... as I said.
