80 gig HD - $30 AR
« on: March 21, 2005, 10:28:29 pm »
I thought I read a post here recently where somebody was looking for an inexpensive 'small' hard drive.    Microcenter has this 80 gig for $30 after rebates.  Just in case anybody's interested:

i think it said you get a $30.00 rebate, so its actually $60.00 for the HD.

Exactly.  One requires the original UPC and the other only asks for a copy.

I think one is from WD and the other is from Microcenter.

My 200 gig I bought on black friday has two seperate rebates. Nothing new. Rebates just suck in general though  ;)

I just posted it because i had read that somebody was looking for a small HD.  Maybe for an older OS and/or mobo bios, I don't know.  The discussion revolved around buying used drives from other people here or buying off eBay, so I figured I'd post the Microcenter info.  Not the hottest deal in the world, but if you're looking for a smaller drive, $30 seems reasonable to me.

btw, just looked at bestbuy.com and didn't see the $40 for 160gig drive deal.

Is it over?  Or do I need to go the the store itself?  I would love to pick one up.
