On sale for $19.99 after rebates at your local OfficeMax, most stores are sold out but are offering rain checks, rebate is valid till next week so it is entirely possible you can get it for $19.99 out the door

Just a comment on the 8MB buffer.

It is not just a gimmick. Got an 120G WD a year ago (standard then was 0-2MB buffers).

The increased performance and smoothness of disk operations had me positively surprised.

I'm with scout.

Put new 80 gig WD 8mb buffer hd's in the systems I built last feb.

They have been awesome.

Highly recomend them.

Got meeself a rain check! The best part is that if I get it after the rebates expire, they only charge me the $20 instead of going through the pay $50 and get a 30 rebate deal.
