    Mmm, an OK price. I just bought a WD 250GB/7200 from Newegg for $56, and I trust Newegg alot more than eWiz, so I'm not going for it.

    I have this drive. Picked it up for $72 a few weeks back.

    I have no complaints.

    But this deal has no rebates to deal with. It's a toss up between the two.

    Not even close to a bargain. It is easy to find a 1TB for this price now.

    You are right, velly solly, I should read before pulling the trigger.

    I bought a Hitachi 500M NB for my thinkpad x61 lately for around $70+tax- this is a fair standard I think. Generally a bigger disk is worth disproportionately all of the notebooks I've seen have only 1 disk slot.
