I agree with above,there will be some good deals on external HD's new years weekend also,so look at the circulars in your local paper.

Answer 2

I like tiger direct for good deals on drives, but the draw back is they ofen require those damned rebates, which means sometimes their advertised good deals really ain't so hot, so you have to search around. Because rebates always mean you havta come up with an extra $50 or hundred bux, then pay the interest on your card for that for two months until they kick it back to you. Then also, the aggrevation of filling out all the rebate requiremntes makes it such a bother I don't even like to fool with them. Sometimes you can find a good refurbished hard drive where cash is king too, and beat the hell out of any rebated price. Just do a search engine query on "refurbished drives" or "used hard drives" or sometyhing like that. If you are willing to wade through all the chaff, there are always some great deals to be found that way! Of course if you are looking for an external drive, then enter "USB DRIVE" into the search query.

You might checkout cyberguys too, they have some cool stuuf sometimes.

The cheapect usb drive with reasonable gigs I have seen lately was a little over 50 bux new from tiger. But if you wanna buy the case and insert the drive yourself finding a used drive somewhereyou can chop that price even further.

Answer 3

go to a retail store tomorrow, you'll find a decent deal. If not, then you could always find one online. I got a Fantom 300gig external for under $110 online
