For any of you lucky enough to live by a Fry's Electronics, there is a sale on the 500GB Seagate SATA II 16mb cache drives this weekend. They're going for 199.00.
I picked up one along with an external SATA HD case to use with my Scientific Atlantic 8300HD DVR as external storage to add 60 more hours of HD recording time.
You know you want one! It's still not the best per GB price. the 300GB drives are going for 99.00 now but if you need one large HD or want to build a large array, it's not a bad deal.
The 750GB drives are pushing prices down already. Rumors of a 1.5TB drive this fall are circulating.
