October 6, 201114 yr HITACHI Deskstar H3IK20003272SP (0S02861) 2TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive $100 shipped with promo EMCJKKD36 (ends 10/12) Would make a nice parity drive if you need the slight speed boost from a 7200 RPM drive. For most users I recommend green drives for parity and data instead. This would also make a nice warm spare/cache drive.
October 13, 201114 yr Author Same deal again: HITACHI Deskstar 7K3000 HDS723020BLA642 (0f12115) 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive $100 shipped after promo EMCJKJG38 (expires 10/19/2011)
October 14, 201114 yr I ordered this same drive from Amazon for $113 (no promo) but the packaging was so bad I put in a return request without even opening the anti-static bag. Basically they just threw it in a card board pouch with no padding at all. I'll most likely order this one here for $100, but I may want to try out that Seagate SV35 drive for the same price. It only has 5900 RPM, but I'm after reliability more then anything.
