2 TB for 80 shipped? I just got one 2 weeks ago. VERY quiet. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152245&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-N82E16822152245-_-na-_-na&AID=10520968&PID=2567387&SID=s01_7173689_17098042

2 TB for 70 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148413&cm_mmc=BFUS-_-14-_-N82E16822148413&nm_mc=BFUS

the second one is probably the best bet. My Spinpoint was $60 shipped, on a special pre BF sale.

Target has a WD 2tb for $69 in store.

2TB internal SATA is what I'm looking for.

Racer, any noticeable speed hit for the 5900/5400 RPM vs. 7200 RPM when they get that big?
I'd be looking to mirror them.

it may be more of a brand to brand and cache size than RPM.
