This JB Hi-Fi sale/deal is back on again, for this specific drive (Seagate Expansion Portable, 2TB, black) as per earlier deal post by hamza

If you don't have a working JB Hi-Fi Perks coupon with which to further lower the price of $69 down to $59 at JB Hi-Fi checkout, the other current alternative deals for the same Seagate 2TB Expansion Portable drive, would appear to be:

• Seagate 2TB Expansion Portable EHDD Drive Black - $68.00 @ Officeworks
• Seagate Expansion 2TB Portable Hard Drive - Black - $68.00 @ Harvey Norman

  Good deal

  Any idea if it's 7mm or 9.5mm drive inside?

    Has a Seagate mobile drive inside it so it should be 7mm.

    Mine was a ST2000LM007.

    It's an alright drive. A lot of people hate rosewood drives, but that's because they are almost impossible to recover data from if they are placed in laptops that are being moved around a lot. If it is stationary or just sitting around as a backup drive, then they rarely fail.

    This rare fact is not mentioned often by data recovery specialists.

      Could you please elaborate on what you mean by this. I was going to shuck one of these and put it in a laptop. Are you saying if I pick it up and move it the drive will fail?

        The firmware should park the heads, but often it does not react fast enough.

        It may have improved over the years, but it is still problem.

  Thanks OP I’ve been too lazy to go in and price match!

  Don't bother buying this crap. Bought one 2 weeks ago and died yesterday.

    That's unfortunate - did you buy it from JB Hi-Fi or from a different retailer/store? Have you looked into returning / claiming warranty?

  I forgot about that $10 coupon, I guess it's expired by now.
