Anyone know of any good deals? zipzoomfly has 1TB Seagates for $148 I think. Anyone know of anything better?

zipzoomfly has the seagate you mention, but they're only $140, and newegg has a WD 1 tb for only $140. Both sites offer free shipping.

I'm in the market for a couple of 1 TB drives as well, but I'm going to try and wait until I can get them for no more than $125 each. Prices have been coming down fairly regularly, from what I've seen.

Depending on the shipping cost, that's a good price.

I've a saved search on eBay for Seagate 1 TB "ST310000NS" series drives, I get at least one notice a day. These are Seagate's top of the line so-called Server class drives and their fastest 7200 RPM HDDs.

The drive you referenced is almost assuredly the Seagate 1 TB "ST310000AS" series which is ever so slightly slower than the NS and normally can be had for in relative abundance for $160 delivered.

According to Seagate, one can build RAID arrays using either drive but mixing the drives in a RAID-0 array is dangerous due to different write speeds between the drive series.

Hope this is useful

internal or external?

BF deals will be nice, but I need it now.

And it's not like you can count on actually getting any BF deals.
