Easter Saturday (03/04) 1 Day Sale -

Iomega 3.5" External HDD $99, reduced from $139.

Sorry I can't give you a pic or more details guys, I'll try and get a pic of it up tomorrow!

Edit: I think it's the desktop prestige editions. Cheapest on SI is 102+shipping. Not as good as I originally thought :(, but no shipping fees definitely makes it a bargain.

    iomega drive allows you to run v.clone

    which looks interesting

    • prankster on 26/03/2010 - 09:03

      how much would the 'image' be on the external hDD to bring it across another comp though?

  • iadelaide on 25/03/2010 - 22:49

    Good price for BW

    Thumbnail had me thinking the drive is available in four cute designs :D

  • ozblogger on 25/03/2010 - 23:15

    Let's see if the stocks stay for long … Good Price

    good price but if you can afford it 1.5tb is still cheaper. $134 available @ 4 stores across aus.

      ~10.1GB per dollar
      vs
      ~11.2GB per dollar (without shipping)

      UMart charge about $10-20 for HDD shipping and they're only listed as preorder.
      Can't find shipping cost for AnyPC (and don't really want to register, but I'll assume it's about the same as above)
      Gamedude just won't work for me

      Anyway, even at the lower estimate, you're looking at about 10.4GB/dollar (as opposed to 10.1gb/$) if you can't pick it up. Definitely better value if you can afford it or want something a little larger - and live close to those few locations - but only marginally! :)

  • bb_hunter on 26/03/2010 - 08:44

    Am I missing something? Can't find it on the BigW online catalog.

    • CyberMurning on 26/03/2010 - 09:21

      me too.. not on catalog ???? oh i think this is special 1 day so it wont be on catalog

    • pais on 26/03/2010 - 10:43
      +1

      The catalogue isn't online yet. (hence why I've linked to the home-page)

      As I said in the OP, I'll try grab a picture of it today.

      • some_one_some_where on 27/03/2010 - 00:14

        If the catalouge is not available yet how do you know when it is going to be available in stores?

        • pais on 27/03/2010 - 01:15

          It's not online. There are hard copies. It's on April 3rd (or Easter Saturday)

          • YesPleaseThankYou on 27/03/2010 - 10:53

            @pais: What about a PDF scan uploaded to Scribd?

            • lbft on 29/03/2010 - 15:06

              @YesPleaseThankYou: Why bother when the catalogue will be online in a couple of days?

              • YesPleaseThankYou on 29/03/2010 - 15:19

                @lbft: Let's see.

              • some_one_some_where on 29/03/2010 - 18:27

                @lbft: I bother because no on else seems to know anything about this deal, not even Big W staff! So if the guy knows where they have seen they should put something on to prove it!

                • pais on 29/03/2010 - 18:42

                  @some_one_some_where: You can question me all you like, but I assure you it's accurate information. I don't have a copy of the catalogue with me to take a pic of it, but it's legitimate. Notice how there are about 3 other bargains posted regarding the one day sale on Easter Sat (April 3rd), they're all from the same catalogue.

                  Relax a little bit.

    Does Officeworks sell these? I am thinking about price match : )

    • YesPleaseThankYou on 26/03/2010 - 10:10

      What did you find? Price match sounds like a good idea.

      • CrocDundee on 26/03/2010 - 10:41

        Yes office works sell them - and will beat it by 5% if you have the proof of the sale price…

        Might be a good idea to call your local OW beforehand to check to see if they have any in stock.

    Is this good external HDD?

  • sk1ppy on 26/03/2010 - 17:43

    Just looked at this at Logan Hyperdome Big W and marked at $148 so itll be a great price when it goes on sale.And even better with a 5% OW discount!! Are they good??

  • Wampus on 27/03/2010 - 10:48

    This is a great price and I'd like to go to Officeworks to price match. Has anyone got any concrete info on this? Officeworks will want to see proof

  • prankster on 28/03/2010 - 11:39

    can't find in the catalogue, how do we get it on the exact day, what evidence do we bring you know?…

    • pais on 29/03/2010 - 18:43
      +1

      You don't need 'evidence' (unless you're price matching) — that's the price it'll be on the day.

    • sk1ppy on 01/04/2010 - 11:51

      Good man!! i never doubted ya : ) Off to OW i go haha

    • [Deactivated] on 01/04/2010 - 16:56

      hey, thanks for the link, but the image doesnt appear to show a prestige drive, just the other version. still $99 for a terabyte isnt bad!

  • sk1ppy on 01/04/2010 - 18:27

    They havnt got this at OW Loganholme : ( Guess ill just have to get to Big W early on Sat instead!

  • YesPleaseThankYou on 01/04/2010 - 19:37

    Whilst this is a great price, the price of storage is only going to go further downward.

    Don't feel too bad if you can't get one of these now.

    • pais on 01/04/2010 - 21:32

      That's generally how technology prices work mate :)

      • YesPleaseThankYou on 01/04/2010 - 23:00

        Well yes, but not everyone is aware of this so I thought it worthwhile to mention.

  • prankster on 03/04/2010 - 19:09

    did anyone get this? totally 4got but if i went in-store, will it be there available? OP still didn't put a picture…

  • Blackrose on 04/04/2010 - 20:00

    I got to Big W just in time to pick up the last one they had at the Ballarat store.

    This was a great deal if you live in regional areas, as we don't get the good deals you get in PC shops in the capital cities, and by the time you add postage many of those deals are not worth it.

    So I'm super happy to get a 1TB USB HDD for under $100.

    Now to fill it up with a couple of hundred CD's lol :)

  • [Deactivated] on 06/04/2010 - 10:29

    i picked up 2 on sat morning at carindale big w. Thanks to the OP. Needed them to back some work stuff up quickly.
