I got the 320GB My Passport Elite from Costco for $90 last week. It is still on sale (you need to get the $30 off discount coupon).

Not a deal. These were selling for $99 via Staples.

The 500 GB is on sale at Costco now (at least in store) for $139

You can get the 500GB for $139.00 at the egg:

How reliable is the Western Digital brand of external hard drives? I'm considering getting one for my dad's office, so that he can back up his files ....

Waiting for the external Solid State drives.

ive used WD before, works fine...

Not such a good deal, as others have stated above. I have a 320 GB I got for $90, works fine, no external plug-in other than the USB connection to the computer.

#5, correct..just plug and play USB
