Little skeptical about the white label... anyone able to confirm that these are rebagged WD drives?

Silly Ben. $45 - $11 shipping = $34 Dollars not $56
Apparently, Ben hasn't learned the difference between a minus sign and an addition sign. Either that or he's too busy counting all his referral money...

Nice price but shipping kills the deal.

$14 for ground shipping... is their distro center in the middle of a farm surrounded by cows or what?

Still a good price with shipping especially if it is a WD drive.

Ppl are correct... shipping kills the deal.... mine came out to $59 shipped... u can get same from newegg with 3 yr warranty and directly from WD for 69.99 shipped free.... much better deal considering u get 2 additional yrs of warranty + newegg reputation

1 year warranty from who? GoHardDrive.com or WD?

Not so great a deal, this'll be the regular sale or rebated price before long without wondering why it's a white label with only 1 year warranty.

White label happens when WD makes a deal with a company like Dell or HP and they make them a certain number of drives at a reduced price, but without all the packaging and labeling frills to bring down the cost.
