Newegg has the Seagate ST1500DL003 Barracuda Green 1.5TB Internal Hard Drive for $65 - $10 off with coupon code EMCKAKD22 [Exp 9/12] = $55 with free shipping. Features SATA 6.0Gb/s data speed, 5900 RPM, and 4.16ms average latency.
Works perfectly fine as a primary drive, too. 5900 RPM, 64M cache, and quieter than any 7200 RPM. Is an extra 1300 RPM really worth the power and noise?
It was $50 a week ago as a Shell Shocker deal but $55 is good too. I'm picking one up for an eMachine I'm building.
These are great as 2nd,3rd,4th drives in a case that doesn't have a high end power supply.
