    I understand that these make great paperweights.

    These suckers are a lot faster than you think. I was copying 8GB movies, and thousands of mp3s, photos, etc, from it and it was copying at 82MB/sec for hours on end.

    The deal was two weeks ago when Newegg had the Samsung 2tb drive for $60.

    I think you have to be signed up for their e-mail specials in order to use the code.

    I try to stay away from Seagate drives no matter how sweet the price. It could be bad luck but for the life of me any Seagate drive I've owned has never made it past 2 years. I avoid them like the plague.

    I don't avoid Seagates, have had no failures from their LP drives, BUT I do avoid drives that use 4 platters from any brand as all brands have higher failure rates the more platters you stuff in them.
