I'm not sure if this is great, but I've been following it for a few weeks now, and it has dropped quite a bit. Also much less than on Newegg.

I still have no idea what the best 1TB drive is. Would you say this or the Samsung Spinpoint? Both around the same price. I'm leaning towards the Caviar Black.

I've heard awesome things about the WD Blacks. It's a 32MB Cache 1TB drive. that's great considering they're not even this cheap on newegg. I'm going to be buying a >500GB HDD soon and if I find a deal like this, I'll def. be going for it.
There was a really great article posted here recently that tested the 1TB HDD. According to what I remember, the Caviar Black smoked the competition in the majority of tests.

Western Digital claims the 32MB Cache does not make a huge difference, but they put it on there so they could market alongside the other 1TB drives and not stick out in a negative way.

I cannot wait to get these drives next week!!!! I am so excited. I've been looking at getting a couple 1TB for awhile.

Back to $109. Damn, I shouldn't have waited.
Is there something replacing the Caviar Black? Why would the price go up unless they are running low on stock.

I can repay. I have a hot date on Sunday and I don't really have any money right now to wine her and dine her.
