My first post, just got this in my e-mail, not a bad deal, free TB hard drive with an Intel SSD purchase, the SSD is fairly cheap to.

  Maybe you should put the price in the heading.

  Intel ssd are really expensive compared to other ssd brands.

  Correct me if I'm wrong, but the price is incorrect. $365/$685 are the prices for the drives without the bonus 1TB drive. If you click promo 2 in the middle of the page, the prices of $395.00/$779.00 appear and only they are eligible for the bonus drive.

    Once you add it to your cart, the discount appears.

  It should say "1TB HDD for $30 extra" rather than "bonus" no?

  • 

    syekotk on 03/06/2010 - 00:26

    agreed, deceptive! It even says "FREE" not "Bonus" down the bottom which makes it even worse.

    I bought my G2 160gb for alot cheaper overseas as well.

    but in the interest of fairness, the Scorptec ones are G2R5 product code… that means its a retail product in a nice box with a proper retail warranty supported by Intel in Australia. The ones from overseas that we all get cheaper are barebones G201 and G2C1 models which are OEM.

    Now personally I am happy to go OEM and pocket the price difference, but some people might not, in which case this is probably a reasonable price.

      I bought an X-25M 80GB from eBay US, retail version for $320 delivered. Arrived in 5 days. So $365 is not a bad price for a local seller. I have no problem buying from overseas though considering the warranty period is 3 years and is direct through Intel. And with no moving parts what could really go wrong with one of these drives?

    The Scorptec deal is actually:
    80GB X-25M G2 (Retail Box)for $365 (normally $395)
    160GB X-25M G2 (Retail Box) for $685 (normally $779)

    Purchase either drive and receive a FREE 1TB Seagate internal SATA 3.5" HDD.

    The promo code description is a little confusing, but once you add either drive to the shopping cart, they have the discount applied and the FREE Seagate 1TB HDD is added automatically.
