Ends today. Newegg has the Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000.D HDS721050DLE630 (0F13178) 500GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive for $60 with free shipping. Provides up to 16% off idle power savings over the previous generation model. Amazon also has it for the same price.
The reviews are interesting! Love or Hare. 38% give it a one - high percentage of drive failures.
What happened to quality control?
The quality control manager drowned in the flood.

These have been called the deathstar from teh get go, IBM used to peddle this junk. I had maybe 30 die on me in my time across multiple clients....I'd never put any data on one of these, even free porn.
Deathstar was only one generation that used glass platters which caused problems. Nothing made since then has any relation to that HDD problem.
