Countries:available in USA
Details:Western Digital 2TB Hard Drive for $80
(expired: 10/31, sold out)

At $80 ($0.04 per GB), this is a great deal and literally half the price this drive was 6 months ago. The Western Digital (WD20EADS) 2TB 5400rpm Serial-ATA Hard Drive for $100 with free shipping, and coupon EMCZYZX48 gives $20 off in the cart. Includes a 3 year warranty.

This is an old model, since replaced by a WD20EARS model which can sometimes be found for $90 or $95. This model as 32MB cache while the newer WD20EARS model has 64MB cache, meaning the newer model should perform a little better.

Since this is an older model drive, it reportedly has 512 byte sectors. This is really good news for someone running an older operating system, such as Windows XP and older versions of Linux, and setting up the drive as one large partition. Windows XP has issues with a large 2TB partition on the newer 4k sector drives.
