sorry to burst your bubble richorlin, but the Toshiba Canvio Basics 1TB {USB3}
I posted yesterday arrived today. http://forums.macresource.com/read.php?1,1272985
It contains a Toshiba #HDD2K11 (MK1059GSM) 1TB 5400rpm 8MB Cache (12.5mm)
Believe that is Toshiba's latest model notebook HD.
Not too shabby for $45!

...and yep, that is one microsized bridge-board they use!
Hal, some folks posted on SD there was a WD {?} External where the bridge-board was soldered to the drive's controller. I have never seen one myself.
