That seems like a great price (less than 25 cents per GB for 1/2 TB HDD). What kind of warranty does it have? Fry's doesn't mention it. Also, I assume it's OEM.

From googling around, I was able to find this:

This is a link to a previous deal on this hard drive...if you follow the link posted there, it takes you to the current deal...they mention it is a 5 year warranty, and that they are not sure if it is OEM or Retail...I wouldn't think the warranty would change...

*EDIT*

Oops, you are right, Maxtor...in the rush of posting it, I switched the drive name for some reason...can I fix this or do I need to wait for a mod?

Great price! I'm glad to see the prices on these continuing to drop! Now if the terrabyte HD's would hit the shelves...

Aww this sucks. No free shipping :(


ZZF has the WD5000AAKS for $130 including free shipping, much better drive IMO.

Good find. (http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=101259) It'd be cheaper for some since Fry's charges taxes in several states, including mine (TX).

Woohoo! At that rate, that hard drive will be free in about 4 months. :cool:
