    I've had a bad experience at dealing with warranty issues with them. So personally, I'd stay away. For WA residents, Netplus and Austin do price matching, so just point them to the website and you'll get the HDD for $79 (Netplus sells them for $79 anyway).

    For eastern state customers, you could get it at Netplus for $79 with free shipping if you're a member of the you-know-what forum.

    For the external enclosure, there are quite a few you could get from dealextreme at around the $10 mark or below shipped, e.g.:

      Have I missed something??
      Are we not allowed to mention "the pool that whirls" anymore?
      If that's not the forum you're talking about, what is?

      • pauly on 09/08/2008 - 10:36

        Nah, not that. It's where overclockers like to hang out. :)

        Some people might say, "but the deal is only exclusively for their members!"… so I thought I'd just leave out mentioning that.

      Sorry 4 the late reply. I too agree as I had a bad experience with their (MCG tech) people skills. But sometimes, when they are the cheapest, we still go there. Also their HDD price is $78.00 as I mentioned in my ad.
      I know that netplus do the price matching, so u can get them matched to $78.00 but they dont give away that enclosure with it for $9.00
      Im not sure about Austin, as I tried to buy logitech z5500 with them and asked them to price match with PLE for $329.00, when their price was $375.00 and they denied saying its less than their cost price.

      Netplus matched it without a fuss, even when their store price was $399.00.

        If Austin doesn't price match for you, email Joseph (hopefully he is still there). He has said that they will pricematch for you if you can find it cheaper at another store provided it is in stock. That's why I never shop at mcgtech any longer. :)

    the hdd is sata, those enclosures are either pata, or 1.8"
    but there are other enclosures for relatively cheap prices

  • elcheapo on 09/08/2008 - 12:33

    I wonder what the "25%" meant for on the keywords/tag.

    • speed8504 on 09/08/2008 - 20:02

      typo .. apologies :)
