February 8, 201214 yr Yeah it's an external, and yeah, you have to put on clothes and leave the house to get it, but at $140, we are getting back to where prices were... Note, thanks to the warranty change, it only has 2 years of coverage, so if you're worried about it breaking in 4 years, and not being covered because you took it out of the case... that's not a problem any more. It has USB3, but as I recall the drives SATA connector is accessible so you can preclear it while still in the case. (aim a fan at it) oh, here's a link to newegg, selling the same drive for $190 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148847
February 9, 201214 yr Best price so far since the flood. But I can't go to 3 TB until they hit about $100 each. Seagate is going 7200 for all their drives and the platter density will increase so unless you must have them now, I would wait.

April 1, 201214 yr Has anyone confirmed the drive specifications? RPM and Cache? Best Buy in store $139
April 2, 201214 yr I like the GoFlex drives just because I can pop them out of the shell, and keep the base around. Makes a nice quick harddrive dock. EDIT: Not to mention you can slap the "dock" onto a dvd drive and have an external drive too,
