I really like this drive and just replaced my parity drive with one.  Great price too as I got mine for around $145 recently.

Looks like these drives are going on sale pretty much everywhere.  Almost makes me weary that there is a problem with them, let's hope not!  I just bought 4 at best buy for $139.99 each.  I know they're on sale on B&H for $139.99 as well (there is another post about that one).  Also, Amazon, though out of stock a lot, has them for $139.99.  Seems like the 5TB drives are definitely the best "bang for buck" deal right now.
