What's the cheapest way to get a 3TB HDD? External vs Internal? USB2 or USB3? Any deals going on at the moment?

Hi mate, where are you located?
I have a box of 3tb greens (Western Digital) and can do them at 130 picked up (I'm in melbourne/geelong/werribee area) or can also post at a cost.
They're left over from pc builds.
I have 2tb reds as well, 1tb reds, 1tb greens, 2tb grees. I've sold all the 3tb reds already.

Umart currently sell the new Toshiba ACA drives which are 135 each. They are rebranded Hitachi drives, extremely reliable and well reported overall.

I managed to pick up a 3tb Seagate external hdd for $112 during an officeworks or jb hi-fi sale (price matched I think), but that was apparently quite a cheap price for the time (like a month ago or so), so it might be a while before that comes around again.

No idea where the best prices are at the moment though, sorry. If you can wait, there will probably be another bargain posted eventually, but who knows how long that will be.
