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;


Yup ... and that will probably be the cheapest price ever for storage -
from now on the price will only go up!

Many years ago when I worked with NASA I got a tour of a facility in
Greenbelt. It was a disk farm with hundreds of washing machine sized
drives, each about 200 Megabytes, for a total of about half a Terabyte.
It contained all of the telemetry from every scientific satellite for
about six months. Now that much storage can fit in your pocket!
