This is the my book, but assume it is the same drive inside. Cheap harddrives have been hard to come by lately up here. If you have any better deals, please share.
April 22, 201610 yr Author Did you get a green, red, blue, purple, or black drive when you opened it up? Green (model WDC_WD50EZRX). But fail to see how that matters. Most of those colors are the same product with different settings, label, warranty terms and price. The beautiful art of product segmentation.
April 22, 201610 yr Author I think it might have been a mistake since the price is now $269 The sale was April 20-21 only, as noted in the headline. It was in their email promo (which I usually never read).
April 22, 201610 yr My bad. Odd how knowing that changes my inclination to buy it. I thought $269 wasn't bad but just knowing it was 40% less a few days ago means I can't pull the trigger now.
