I needs a new hdd.

Yeah i have just found out, that my hdd is die'in. I was looking around at microcenter and came upon this,

http://microcenter.com/byos/byos_sin...duct_id=257300

I don't want to shop newegg, because i don't want to wait for it. If you can find a better hdd than this at a local store (bestbuy, microcenter, compusa....) let me know.
