750GB Seagate 3.5" PATA/IDE - $79

Someone here was looking for exactly this drive a while ago - $79 at the Seagate outlet.

Sorry to hijack, but anyone who would click on this might also be interested in Target clearance WD 750 USB for the same price (I think...might have been $75). YMMV. My local store had about a dozen of them.

Edit: OK, after thinking, I just realized...I thought they were USB, but I don't think I've ever seen WD branded externals. Could be either way. Plus I realized the specifics of the drive above. I'd assume the Target drive was SATA. I'm not in the market, so I didn't look that close. Anyway, still a good deal for someone.

Woulda loved this a few months ago, but I've moved on from IDE now. That's a great price BTW, for anyone with old IDE enclosures or older power macs.

Tempting. I do have an older OWC Elite FW 400/800 enclosure with IDE. I have a 400GB drive in there now which is OK, but it would be nice to max it out at 750. Not sure if I really need that, but I don't know how much longer these kinds of drives will be around.
