Quick, use up any Wish gift cards you already have, DSE probably won't honour them after the sale is complete. And the price becomes effectively $122.55 if you bought those gift cards at 5% discount.
Would this have a sata connector? I know that these are quite thick so they won't fit in most 2.5" caddies.
This drive doesn't need a caddy, it is already USB3!
Were you thinking of a firewire/thunderbolt/E-SATA caddy?
Well, thinking about putting it in the PS3 and it might not fit, I also don't like the new usb 3 connector as my Vantec USB 3 usb2/3 snapped off the pcb.
Great deal… haven't seen these for this price for a very long time.. 2 years ago now :) and they were usb2.0
or not since last night?

:)
how does it compare to this?

it does not.
that's a 3.5" drive.
External Hard Drive usually needs an extra AC adapter. Portable Hard Drive is usually USB powered.
Officeworks don't stock this drive, so no price matching possible either.
I wish my local DSE hadn't closed 6 months ago. They weren't useful for much, other than special deals like this one.

was discussed it here
how is it that only one person who voted +ve for this deal, also did so for http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/80770?
Other deal is better. Expansion is Seagate's budget range.
some people has different preference…..size does matter
thanks bud bought one today
These USB drives have a "Super Speed" propriety socket on the drive.

Major pain in the neck for me. Probably wouldn't have bought them if I'd have know this to begin with. :(
Rumor said DSE has just been sold? Is there more sale coming?
