Y'all can try to get them to honor the sale......but as I went to BestBuy
to get my $24+ coupon discount, I looked to see how many drives were left.

THE PRICE HAS BEEN INCREASED BACK TO $279.95 FOR THIS HARD DRIVE.

Sorry if you missed it.....(c;

Mine still has almost 300GB unused! Grabit's working on that....(c;


You can still get good deals online though, and I'm not talking about
ebay. I bought a 500GB USB hard drive from eCost. With the rebate,
it was $89.99+S&H, which was like $11 or something. It's a Hitachi in
a USB enclosure with the same little sideways plugging switcher power
supply on yours. It arrived the 2nd day after I bought it. That's
only $0.20/MB.

Here's the one I got: http://www.ecost.com/detail.aspx?edp=3347820

It's more now than when I bought it last month. Prices and rebates
are always changing. They also have one that's USB or eSATA for $5
more.
