exchange rate really kills it, didn't realise how low the aussie dollar is, 76c.
Lol have you been living under a rock or something? It's been like this for a month or two now
nah I've just been avoiding deals in USD haha
Very good price,
I think I'll get one…
how about this one?
http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Expansion-Desktop-External-STB…
any difference? apart from looking different?
thank you
think the only difference is the one I posted is a newer model of the same thing.
Any ideas if there's and AUstralian standard power pack included. Last two drives I bought from Amazon came only with USA adapters. Apart from the inconvenience, I was confronted by another $15.00 for each.
Why dont you just bent the ll plugs to /\ with simple pliers?
?? Really? I thought the USA is on 110volts?
Or are the power packs auto voltage detecting?
Pretty sure all those power packs are 100-240v compatable.
Yea, you're right - 100v to 240v auto adjusting.
However, I'm a little wary of the pin bending thing. It would leave the terminals exposed between socket and plug. I'll make it a rainy day project since I have two of the power supplies at hand.
Thanks
@GuiGuy:
buy an adapter. Costs around $2
@outlander:
Yea, gotta internationale travel elektric adapter thingie somewhere…
@outlander: Problem is, many of the cheap adapters fit very poorly. It's because Australian pins are thicker than US/HK ones.
Someone could make a fortune by designing/selling a cheap adapter which actually fits :)
@Make it so:
I had no problems with the BIC ones. Very snug fit, and cheap.
just make sure you use two needle nose pliers and once you got a good bend then you can use shirnk wrap to cover the exposed part.
that;s what I do.
good luck.
I ordered a 2tb Seagate expansion HDD from Amazon and the power adpater it came with had international clips for the different plug types, including an Australian one. That was a few years back though.
Thanks OP. Just ordered one.
bugger. added to cart, did a little more shopping to make the shipping worth while. Sold out.
Including delivery it comes down to $141.41USD. That's about $186AUD. Maybe add that to the title.
