Title: Western Digital Rebate
Post by: videoholic on September 15, 2002, 06:39:34 AM

Western Digital is offering 100 dollar rebate on their 120 gb 7200 hard drive this week.  They are at Best Buy for 249.

I have also seen them on office Max website.  You can get a 30 dollar coupon with an easy google search bringing the price down to about 120 bucks.

Not bad.  A buck a gig...

8 years ago I payed 450 for my 1 gig.

I just went and bought one because my main drive crapped out on me.

Actually it is 120 in rebates, so the thing ended up being 129 bucks for 120 gig drive.

You can actually find better prices than this if you keep an eye on slickdeals.net.  They posted one from CompUSA that worked out to $110 after $100 rebate.  

Western Digital sucks anyway.  I have had about four of them fail on me in the past 6 years, and no other brand has failed in my experience.  I\'d rather get two 60gig Maxtors than a 120 gig WD.

I actually wanted to get this one in particular because I can put it in my ultimate TV.  I had a drive fail on me yesterday, that\'s why I had to buy it.  If I can get the other drive back to working order I can use this 120 in my UTV.  THen I\'d have over 100 hours of record time.  YAHOO.
