Has anyone gotten one of these yet?

Office Max has 120 gig maxtor network hard drives for 39 bucks, after INSTANT rebates, none of that mail in crap. It's a clearance item, so there are no rainchecks, no special orders, nothing. Nobody anywhere nearby has these things.

Where you at?? I'll have to swing by one here to see if they have it.

whoa! didn't realize that. I'm gonna run on up there tonite and grab me one before all the other geeks get their geasy hands on 'em. I can see it now - a lot like women fighting over wedding dresses on those clearance markdown days, I'll be knee deep in geeks fighting 'em off with my slide ruler! "ehh! ehh! that's mine you insensitive clod! Take that! and that!"

I'm not even using 6 GB off my 30 GB and dont have a clue what I would do with all that other space. I guess it's always good to have spare bits, in case of an emergency. AFterall, no one ever thought the price of memory would be too expensive until those 2 semiconductor plants burnt down in Japan a few years ago. Thanks for the heads up! I'm gassing up the truck and sharpening up the 'ole slide ruler!

There are 160GB HDs at CompUSA. $129 at first though, but a $100 mail-in rebate. I'm probably going to go for it. :D

Why didn't you say something sooner because I just ordered a 300GB network storage drive... And it was way more than 30 some dollars... :-(

[panickedthumb]

yeah, I can't seem to find them on the site... it might be a local thing

[gil-galad]

Heh, Two of my friends tried to buy these things and the store was out. Its a hot deal.

My fiancee works at Office Max-- she said one of the workers held back three, because they get the ad really early and know what sweet deals are coming. He held back THREE! They only had 6 in the store! The managers didn't like that too much.

i think i'll pass...

i'm using 1.4GB of my 40gb HDD with my from-server install :-# \\:D/
